The South Delhi Municipal Corporation (SDMC) mandated commercial vehicles to carry Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) tag to enter the national capital from today.
RFID tags for commercial vehicles are again being made mandatory in Delhi. From Tuesday, no commercial vehicle will be allowed to enter Delhi without RFID tag.
Speaking to a news agency, an SDMC official said, “In case of no RFID tag on any commercial vehicle, now a provision has been made to cancel its permit. This radio frequency identification system has been installed at 13 toll plazas in Delhi. Last month also an order was issued regarding this and our team was working on these 13 toll plazas.
So far, we were letting those without RFID tags leave with a warning, but from August 31, it is being strictly implemented.”
SDMC has issued a notice regarding this. According to this notice, payment of toll tax or environment compensation charge can be made only through an RFID tag for any commercial vehicle entering Delhi from August 31.
