Ministry of Road Transport and Highways will launch mobile apps  m-Parivahan –  during the week  from 9th to 15th January 2017.

m-Parivahan is a citizen centric app that will facilitate access to various transport related services. The app provides for virtual driving license and registration certificate through back end connection to Transport National Register.  If a vehicle number is entered into the app, it will give full details of the car and the owner including his DL and RC. This will provide a way to check genuineness of a vehicle and driver, help in passenger safety when hiring a driver or when buying a second hand vehicle. However, the user has to be registered so that his credentials can be established. One of the ways of doing this would be through an Aadhar based OTP.

The app will also facilitate good Samaritans through technology. They can report accidents by clicking pictures and reporting  to traffic authorities in states and to RTOs, with the option of hiding their identity if they so wish. They can also report traffic violations. States will be asked to provide linkages to the 108 service for better response.
