New Delhi: The suspension of fitness checks for auto-rickshaws at the transport authority centre in Delhi’s Burari has increased difficulties for thousands of drivers. With fitness certificates not being issued, auto drivers fear legal action and challans. Many drivers are being forced to visit the centre every day, but with the inspection process not starting, renewal of their vehicles’ fitness certificates remains stuck.
According to drivers, fitness checks for auto-rickshaws at the Burari centre have been affected for a long time. Vehicle owners whose certificates have expired or are about to expire are facing the most difficulty. As they are not getting fitness certificates on time, they are unsure about operating their vehicles on the road. Some drivers say they may have to face traffic police action despite the inspection system being stalled.
Auto drivers have demanded that the transport department restore the system soon. They say technical and administrative problems at fitness inspection centres should be resolved so that they do not have to suffer unnecessary financial losses. For drivers who run their households by driving autos every day, keeping their vehicles off the road is also becoming difficult.
The purpose of a fitness certificate is to ensure the technical condition of vehicles and their safety on the road. In such a situation, a prolonged disruption in the inspection process is affecting not only vehicle drivers but also the transport system. Drivers have demanded that inspections at the Burari centre be started soon and appropriate steps be taken to provide relief to affected vehicle owners until the system returns to normal.
