Imphal, May 15 2014 :
Considering the demand of MEELAL for inclusion of Meetei Mayek in vehicle's High Security Registration Plate (HRSP), the Transport Department has assured to find out if there is scope for such insertion of Meetei Mayek in the HSRP from the Ministry concerned and obtain information regarding display of local script in HSRP from other State Govts at the earliest.
The Transport dept has convened a meeting on May 2 in this regard.
The Dept also said that the ongoing HRSP fixation may be allowed to continue.
In the interest of popularisation of Meetei Mayek, the Dept would have no objection if private vehicle owners wish to write registration numbers in their vehicles in the front and rear appropriately but without touching the HSRP on their own volition, said a press statement issued by the Transport Dept.
Meanwhile, the statement added that as the deadline fixed by the dept for affixation of HSRP has ended, defaulters should be imposed penal actions accordingly.
