The Haryana Transport Department has entrusted NIC with the responsibility of computerizing many of its important functions. These include :
● Issue of Driving Licenses ● Registration of Vehicles ● Issue of Permits ● Collection of Road and other taxes ● Enforcement of various provisions of the Motor Vehicles Act
The NIC Jind District Unit has been selected for detailed study on the development and implementation aspects of the project. NIC has already gone ahead with the project by connecting all Roadways depots in Haryana with the Office of the State Transport Commissioner through NICNET. A Email address has been provided to each of the 21 depots for the purpose. A one-day workshop on NICNET facilities, organized by NIC on November 19, 1997, was attended by General Managers of Haryana Roadways, the State Transport Commissioner and senior officers of the Transport Department. A five-day training programme on word processing and e-mail utilization was organized for officials of the Transport Department as a prelude to the project.
