The Cabinet has approved a resolution submitted by the Transport Minister to remove the provincial letters at issuance of vehicle number plates, the Government Information Department said. It said the letters to identify provinces are added to the number plate when registering vehicles which is easy at the vehicular emission tests and annual revenue license issuance. “However, both the customers as well as the Department of Motor Traffic have to encounter many difficulties since the number plates have to be changed at each instance the right of ownership of the vehicles are transferred between provinces. “Since a unique number is issued to each registered vehicle at its registration, the identity of each vehicle can be easily recognized across the departmental data base. “Considering those facts, the Cabinet of Ministers issued approval to the resolution submitted by the minister of transport for removal of the provincial letters at issuance of vehicle number plates,” it said.
