Getting a driving licence, learner or full, or even getting a vehicle's registration certificate are all set to become online as the Centre has issued a notification today to move as many as 18 RTO services to digital.

The notification, issued by the Ministry of Road, Transport and Highways, reads, "In order to provide convenient and hassle-free services to the citizen, the Ministry shall make all the required arrangements for wide publicity through media and individual notices to make citizens aware of the requirements of Aadhaar for availing contactless services through implementing agencies."
