No driving test for licence now

The Ministr y of Road Transport and Highways on Friday issued a draf t notification for the accreditation of driver training centres, wherein an individual, on successful completion of driver training from such centres, will be exempted from the requirement of driving test while applying for a driving licence. This move, the Ministr y said, will also help the transport industr y to have specially-trained drivers, which will improve their efficiency and reduce road accidents.
