According to the director general, the decision was taken due to the increased public demand and congestion at the Civic Centre, aiming to provide greater convenience to those seeking number plates for their vehicles.
The Sindh government had issued a final deadline for vehicle owners to replace their number plates with the new ‘Ajrak’ design. Chawla announced that after April 3, vehicles displaying any number plates other than the newly issued ones will no longer be accepted.
