Union minister for Road Transport and Highways Nitin Gadkari has said his ministry is working on a new system that would deduct points from a driver's licence and a vehicle's registration certificate for every traffic offence committed, with repeated violations potentially leading to suspension or cancellation of both documents.
Gadkari made the announcement while speaking at the 66th SIAM Annual Convention 2026, where he laid out a series of upcoming changes aimed at improving road safety and driver accountability across the country.
