Ernakulam has become the first district in India to initiate communication in the Motor Vehicles Department (MVD) through a digital wireless network, with Transport Minister Antony Raju commissioning the service here on Friday.
The communication mode will henceforth network 12 RTO and sub-RTO offices and 34 enforcement vehicles of the MVD in the district. It would be extended to Palakkad and Alappuzha districts in the next phase, said Mr. Raju.
The system is part of the 100-day action plan of the State government.

Chief Minister Siddaramaiah on Saturday said that on the lines of the farmers’ protest that compelled the Centre to withdraw farm laws, a protest would be launched with like-minded political parties and organisations representing the poor to demand repeal of the new Viksit Bharat-Guarantee for Rozgar Ajeevika Mission (Gramin) (VB-G RAM G) and restoration of the Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Act (MGNREGA).
