Staff shortage hits MVD's enforcement activities
The New Indian Express Kannur|December 17, 2024
THE motor vehicle department (MVD) has shifted its focus from enforcement activities to administrative work due to the shortage of officers.
EXPRESS NEWS SERVICE @T'Puram

MVD has not only failed to fill the vacancies but also shifted officers to administrative works, crippling the enforcement drive.

With less than 200 inspectors, the department is not able to implement the 'Safe Kerala project', launched in 2019 to reduce road accidents and to stop the violation of traffic rules.

Against the need for 510 Assistant Motor Vehicle Inspectors (AMVIs) and 198 Motor Vehicle Inspectors (MVIs) for ensuring round-the-clock enforcement, the department only has 255 AMVI and 85 MVI posts sanctioned.
