Providing such services in a contactless and faceless manner would go a long way in saving critical time of citizens while easing their compliance burden, said the MoRTH.

Consequently, the footfall at the regional transport offices (RTOs) is likely to significantly reduce, which would lead to greater efficiency in their functioning, it added.

The online services for which a citizen is required to undergo Aadhaar authentication on voluntary basis includes — application for Learner License, issue of duplicate Driving License and renewal of Driving License for which test of competence to drive is not required.
