Driving school owners seek fulfilment of demands

Seeking fulfilment of their demands, the Federation of Karnataka Motor Driving Training School Owners’ Association will take out a march in Belagavi on December 8 and stage a one-day dharna in front of Suvarna Vidhana Soudha.

Addressing presspersons along with other office-bearers in Hubballi on Wednesday, president of the federation Anand Patil said that it had become inevitable for them to hold the protest as their repeated pleas to the Transport Commissioner to resolve the pending issues had not received any positive response. Although four months ago, a meeting was held to revise the driving training fees and resolve other issues, no government order had been passed till date.

Mr. Anand Patil said that ‘Faceless Learning License Service’ had encountered several problems including ineligible persons getting LLR, which in turn were resulting in road accidents. “We want the government to make it mandatory to hold LLR tests at the driving training schools and also make it mandatory for the applicants to get Form-14 issued from driving schools. We want the fee revision done at the earliest,” he said.
