NEW DELHI, Jan 18: It is very unlikely that Manmohan Singh will drive a car in the years ahead, but the Prime Minister today chose not to take a chance and personally went to the transport office to renew his driving licence like any other citizen, reports PTI. In his characterstically unfuzzy manner, the Prime Minister insisted on going to the Regional Transport Office at Indraprastha here to renew his driving licence that had expired 45 days ago, but he made one concession to security by choosing a Sunday to go there along with his wife Gursharan Kaur, who also renewed her licence.
The 76-year-old Prime Minister completed the required formalities like getting himself photographed and fingerprinted as required for the new biometric licence. He also produced the mandatory medical fitness certificate.
Singh arrived at 11.30 am and was at the RTO for about 15 minutes.
According to Delhi government sources, the renewed license was handed over to the prime minister by Motor Licensing Officer Pradeep Anand. Transport Commissioner RK Verma and senior officials were present when Singh arrived.
The RTO which does not function on Sundays was specially kept open for the Prime Minister. Weekdays at the transport offices attract huge rush.
