Illegal agents at Andheri RTO have become a menace for the officials there. On December 6, an illegal agent named D Shirke allegedly assaulted Sachin Kotapkar, a RTO staff, after the latter asked him to vacate a cabin which he had entered without permission.

Explaining the series of events, a RTO official said that the incident of assault on the license officer occurred on Wednesday afternoon. "Kotapkar was inside the confidential cabin when Shirke entered and demanded changes to be made in a document. This is when Shirke was asked to leave the room as outsiders are not permitted and an argument ensued," said a RTO official.
