Plea for free inter-State road transport

The Minister for Transport and Shipping, Dr. V.K.R.V. Rao, to-day [December 9] suggested that obstacles to free movement of vehicles from State to State and within a State itself should be removed. Dr. Rao said the Inter-State Transport Commission at its standing committee meeting in January next was expected to consider the question of authorising the commission to issue permits to enable the freer movement of motor vehicles throughout the country. Dr. Rao said the Union Government was considering steps to give the Transport Commissioner powers to issue inter-State permits so that freedom of movement of vehicles is ensured and obstacles in the way of free flow of traffic removed.
