In a bid to tackle traffic e-challans sent to people whose mobile phone numbers are incorrectly registered with the Motor Vahan database, Maharashtra's Regional Transport Office (RTO) is now mulling on taking the help of the Unique Identification Authority of India (UIDAI) data. It will be used while issuing vehicle-related information to the mobile number of the correct licensed owner to 'reduce the pendency' of e-challans.
Besides this, RTO is also coming up with a One Time Password (OTP) while registering a vehicle. It will be registered after an alphanumeric string of characters to authenticate the user, is feeded in.
