PUNE: The online test for learners’ licence is expected to begin by the end of this week or by next week, officials said.
“The tests will start at all regional transport offices (RTO) in one go.
We are hoping to start by this week itself or by next week,” state transport commissioner Avinash Dhakne told TOI.
Pune’s regional transport officer Ajit Shinde said on Wednesday that the standard operating procedures (SOP) were being finalised and the details would be shared soon.
According to the present system, one needs to go to the Sarathi option on the Parivahan portal (Parivahan.gov.in) and seek an online appointment for the learners’ licence test.
One needs to fill in a form, provide address documents, pay the fees after which an appointment is given to appear for a test at the RTO office.
“While we have received the circular regarding online tests, we are awaiting further details,” another RTO official said.
The daily appointment quota for a learners’ licence has been reduced from 700 to 350.
“Once the application is filed, the test date will be informed to the examinees on their mobile phones and they will receive an OTP.
They will have to log on to the Parivahan Portal, click on the learners’ licence test tab, key in their OTP and start the examination.
We don’t expect any cheating to take place as the duration of the exam will be short,” the official said.
Meanwhile, the Federation of Automobile Dealers Associations has thanked the transport department for making vehicle registration process online and paperless.
There is no physical verification for the first registration of new fully-built motorcycles and cars and all document are allowed to be e-signed by the dealers.
