Islamabad residents can enjoy driving licence facility at their doorstep

ISLAMABAD: The Islamabad Capital Territory (ICT) Police has initiated a pioneering initiative to provide driving licences directly to residents’ doorsteps using modern technology.

Under the directives of Islamabad Inspector General Syed Ali Nasir Rizvi and SSP Traffic Sarfraz Work, three specially equipped vehicles have been commissioned to facilitate the issuance and renewal of driving licences, learner permits, and replacement licences across Islamabad.

These vehicles are equipped with modern amenities including two counters, laptops, UPS backup, a generator, and a printing system, ensuring efficient and hassle-free processing for applicants.

The initiative particularly targets special groups such as students of federal educational institutions, colleges, universities, public parks visitors, persons with disabilities, and individuals above the age of 70, providing them with convenient access to essential driving documentation.

A significant number of Islamabad’s residents have already availed themselves of this service, with the Driving Facilitation Center van stationed at Abpara Market proving particularly popular among applicants.

Citizens who have utilized the doorstep service expressed their satisfaction, emphasizing the importance of expanding such initiatives across the capital to accommodate the growing demand.

Speaking on the development, Islamabad Traffic Police PRO Mohammad Nawis highlighted plans for further enhancement of the service, including public awareness campaigns aimed at informing citizens about the benefits of this innovative approach.
