The Department of Transport in Goa has issued a clear and stern warning to all vehicle owners across the state: affix your High Security Registration Plates (HSRP) immediately or face strict penalties. This comes after a recent inspection drive revealed widespread non-compliance, prompting authorities to announce intensified enforcement measures.
Under Rule 50 of the Central Motor Vehicle Rules, 1989, HSRPs are mandatory for all vehicles. These tamper-proof, standardised number plates are designed to enhance vehicle security, curb theft, and enable better enforcement of road safety laws.
To simplify the process, the department has authorised vehicle dealers to handle HSRP affixation directly. Additionally, vehicle owners can place orders through the official SIAM (Society of Indian Automobile Manufacturers) portal.
The public notice urged all vehicle owners to complete the installation of HSRPs at the earliest to avoid fines or further action. The department is expected to launch stricter roadside checks and impose penalties on vehicles found in violation.
This enforcement drive signals the government’s commitment to implementing road safety norms and modernising vehicle identification systems. All motorists in Goa are advised to comply without delay.
