The Delhi government has prepared a new school cab poli꧟cy that w🥀ill allow private cars to be registered as commercial vehicles and ferry schoolchildren after certain alterations, sources said Thursday.
Under the policy, the transport department plans to allow the owners of private cars to operate their vehicles as commercial ones by making certain modifications like iꦏnstalling speed governors, and roof carriers to carry bags.
The policy shall be placed in the🃏 public doಞmain after it is vetted by all departments.
Currently, if someone wants to run a cab for school children, they are supposed to buy a new vehicle and registeꦉr it under the school cab category.
Once the new cab policy is in place, a CNG-fuelled private vehicle with a valid fit🃏ness certificate can be registered as a commercial one and get a permit for carrying sc🦄hool children.
The school cab ♌policy was formulated in 2007. Ten years later, a condition stating that only new vehicles can be registered in this category was introduced.
