SIALKOT: The Excise and Taxation Department has so far not issued as many as 200,000 computerised number plates after a lapse of more than two years in Gujranwala Division.
According to details, the Punjab government had computerised all the record of the motor registration branches across the Punjab in July 2007. The E&T Department had collected Rs 400 per motorcycle and Rs 1,000 per car for allotting the computerised registration plates until 2012.
In January 2014, the department had vowed to send the computerised number plates to all the applicants until July 2014, but the applicants are still waiting for the registration plates.
Gujranwala District Motor Registration Authority official Nauman Khalid said that the department has repeatedly brought the matter into the notice of the provincial high-ups.
