The bottleneck in distribution of smart driving licences is likely to ease as a new vendor of Bangladesh Road Transport Authority starts the distribution process today.
Chennai-based Madras Security Printers Ltd will begin by taking finger prints of the licence seekers in four districts and will start providing the cards in a few days, officials said.
After the four districts, finger prints would be taken at the seven divisional headquarters and then at the three BRTA offices in the capital, they added.
Over eight lakh licence seekers have already given their finger prints and done other formalities. But very few are getting the smart licence card due to supply shortages, sources said.
