Over seven lakh people across Kerala have been affected by a delay in the printing and delivery of the hard copies of their driving licences and vehicle registration certificates (RC). The firm entrusted with the printing of these documents stopped the work in November last year following the failure on the part of the Motor Vehicles department (MVD) to clear dues of around ₹8 crore.
The MVD owes an additional ₹3 crore to the Department of Posts towards delivery charges of the two documents.
The Kochi-based firm stopped printing the driving licences on November 16, 2023, and the RC a week later.
