DoTM cancels more than 572,000 license applications, new system to be enforced from today



KATHMANDU: The Department of Transport Management (DoTM) has canceled all online applications for driver’s licenses.

The Department has stated that all the online applications received so far have been canceled and the new system is being added.

According to DoTM more than 572,000 applications have been rejected so far and the arrangements have been made to close the old application and apply through the new system.

DoTM also informed that the new online application system for driver’s license will start from 6 pm on Monday.

However, those willing to get their category changed have to wait for one more week as the Department is planning to start the service from next Monday onwards.

Due to the coronavirus epidemic, the license examination has been stopped for a long time.

Earlier, those who had filled up the forms through various offices had to wait for three years for their turn to come.

DoTM had closed the application system since last April due to excessive pressure.

During that period, 572,000 applications were received. The Department had announced to implement of the new system from May 18. However, due to technical issues, it could not be implemented on that date.
