Karnataka transport dept to revamp DL, RC with QR codes and microchips

Karnataka's transport department is set to transform the driving license (DL) and vehicle registration certificate (RC) formats by introducing smart cards embedded with QR codes and microchips to standardise formats, in line with the Union Ministry of Road Transport and Highways guidelines. The transport department has conducted a tender process to select a private organisation responsible for printing and distributing the new DL and RCs.
