A group of RTO officials, middlemen and applicants were working together in this.
Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann has suspended Vigilance Bureau chief SPS Parmar after a scam related to driving licences came to light. Besides, an AIG and an SSP have also been suspended.
In this scam, people got their driving licences without taking tests or following the rules. Some allegedly paid bribes to officials or agents to speed up the process. In some cases, fake documents were allegedly used, and records were changed to make people look eligible when they were not.
A group of RTO officials, middlemen and applicants were working together in this. The Vigilance Bureau officers were suspended because they didn’t take proper action when they found out about the scam.
