Revenue Generation: Is it appropriate to put an e-tag on a motorcycle??


The city administration apparently started a plan to install e-tags on vehicles to make security more effective. E-tags were pasted inside the windscreen of vehicles, and while this was suitable for the vehicles, this plan has not been completed yet.

At the same time, it has now issued an order to install non-standard paper sticker-type e-tags on the speedometers of motorcycles, which is not only unsafe but has become a security risk because these sticker-type e-tags are being installed on open speedometers, which will come off automatically, or any person will remove them because motorcycles are parked outside in parking lots.

These stickers can also come off due to rain or sun, and malicious elements can remove these stickers and put it on their motorcycles to commit mischief. While the police have clearly said that it is the duty of the citizen to protect the sticker.

If the sticker comes off, then the fee will have to be paid again and this sticker will have to be installed, otherwise the motorcycle will have to be confiscated or fined, which raises many questions.

Bikers have to stand in queues and pay a fee of Rs 250 to get this sticker. If this sticker is not attached to the motorcycle meter, the motorcycle can be confiscated, a challan can be issued, and even an FIR can be filed.

Numerous problems can arise for the citizens, but the administration has only one goal, which is to collect revenue at any cost. To the extent of vehicles, the citizens have accepted it, but when this sticker was put on motorcycles, the citizens expressed reservations and appeared worried.

Any concerned lawyer or citizen should challenge this in court and make this current illegal or unsafe project of the administration effective or end it. This is the duty of all of us. The rulers always take the blood of the people and by making projects that create problems, they take money from the pockets of the people through various tactics and humiliate them.

The people have appealed and requested the lawyers participating in this special case to challenge it in court so that all the citizens and bikers can get rid of this substandard or unsafe motorcycle e-tag.
