Expansion
If 10 years old diesel or 15 years petrol vehicle has been completed then you will be able to declare it yourself for scrapping. Due to this, there will be no danger of confiscation of vehicles, nor will there be any worry of scrapping the expired vehicles.
Even if your vehicle has been scrapped, you will be able to give information to the Transport Department. The Transport Department will develop an app to survey vehicles. It will be linked to Aadhaar and will provide complete details of vehicles on a single click. This app will work in getting the vehicle scrapped.

From the point of view of security, they will also be able to share scrap information on the lines of Voluntary Declaration of Income (VDIS). Transport department official says people are being encouraged to scrap vehicles to curb pollution. The initiative in the direction of VDS will benefit the vehicle owners as well as the department.
Aadhaar will tell the complete details of your vehicle
OTP will be issued on entering your mobile number under VDS. After this, on giving the details of the Aadhaar card, the complete details of the vehicle will be revealed. If the vehicle is scrapped, it can be declared voluntarily. Even if the vehicle has to be scrapped after the expiry of the term, then also you will be able to use this app or website.
Security will not be worried: There is a provision of concession on the purchase of new vehicles from the certificate issued on scrapping vehicles. It is also very important from the point of view of security. For this, vehicles are scrapped after deregistration. After scrapping private vehicles, strong documents are not available in terms of security. In such a situation, there is a danger of misuse of vehicles.
