Port Blair, June 24: The State Transport Authority has been imposing a fine amount of Rs. 50 on commercial vehicles after the expiry of their fitness to ply. In this regard, Shri K Parmashivam, State Secretary, BJP explained that the vehicles take atleast two to three months for getting fitness due to various works such as body repairing/ engine repairing/ electrical work/ painting work etc.  Moreover in remote areas, the situation  is more critical due to non availability of spare parts. This has led to immense problems to the vehicle owners who are financially not well to do. The State Secretary therefore has requested the STA to reconsider the fine amount being imposed.
