On April 7, 2022, the process of opening about 1000 transport facilitation centers across the state was approved to make transport related services easier and closer to home in Chhattisgarh.
Key Points
- It is worth mentioning that Chief Minister Bhupesh Baghel had made an announcement on January 26 for the establishment of a Transport Facilitation Center across the state for expansion of transport related services.
- During this, a draft was prepared by the Transport Department regarding the establishment and role of Transport Facilitation Center. After approving this draft, the process has been started for further action. With the establishment of 1000 Transport Facilitation Centers, there is a possibility of generating employment for about five thousand youth.
- According to Gazette No. 240 (A) of the Government of India issued on March 31, 2021, the Transport Facilitation Center can be authorized to make a learning license. In order to give employment-oriented nature to this vision, it has been decided to establish a Transport Facilitation Center in Chhattisgarh.
- In addition to the learning license, applications can be made for other transport related services in transport facilitation centers. With this, while transport related services will be available to the general public easily and near to home, educated youth and unemployed will also get employment. Fees have also been fixed for various services in the Transport Facilitation Centers in the guide.
- Till now, due to lack of correct information, a large number of people have been applying for transport related service by contacting unauthorized agents, due to which they have to suffer financial loss along with taking more time. Now there will be no need to visit unauthorized agents for transport related facilities.
