Nilgiris residents, who own vehicles that are registered outside of the Nilgiris will need to get an e-pass from the Regional Transport Office in Udhagamandalam to continue using their vehicles without hassle within the district, a press release stated.
Following the Madras High Court’s order that said vehicles entering the Nilgiris will need to mandatorily get an e-pass to enter the district from May 7 to June 30, it has been announced that all “TN-43” registered vehicles (with a Nilgiris licence plate) will be exempt from requiring an e-pass. However, vehicles that are registered outside the Nilgiris will need to get an e-pass from the RTO by providing original ownership documentation, an insurance certificate as well as the pollution certificate to the RTO, the press release said.
