Only persons who have taken vaccines are allowed in RTO

Aurangabad, April 5:

The Regional Transport Office (RTO) has stopped the work of issuing

permanent and learning driving licenses till April 30 and the administration

has taken the decision to allow only those persons in the premises who have

taken the Corona vaccines. The residents are questioning that the government

has allowed the vaccination of the people above 45 years of age then what about

the persons below 45 years.

Considering the increased Corona pandemic, the RTO stopped

the tests for permanent and learning licenses from March 11 to April 5 earlier,

and now this tenure has extended till April 30. However, most of the vehicle

owners were not aware of this decision and hence many people went to RTO on

Monday. Only those people who have taken Corona vaccines were allowed to enter

in the office. The entry to the persons who have taken vaccines has been

included in the government’s ‘Brake the Chain’ programme to restrict the spread

of Corona infection. The RTO employees are included in the category of

frontline workers and hence most of them have taken the vaccines. The

guidelines regarding the persons below 45 years will be soon received, said RTO

Sanjay Metrewar.
