FADA had been involved in discussions with the State Transport Department to implement new rules that would reduce the risk of infection during the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic.
On June 8, 2021, Dr. Avinash Dhakane, State Transport Commissioner, issued an order that enables online submission of vehicle registration documents and allows e-signatures.
