RAWALPINDI: Punjab Excise and Taxation department has started distribution of registration number plates across the province including Rawalpindi through Pakistan Post.

Under the agreement between the Punjab Excise and Taxation Department and Pakistan Post two months ago, the registration number plates of new vehicles registered in Punjab were sent by the Excise and Taxation Department, Lahore, through the Urgent Mail Service to the post offices across the province.

The Pakistan Post has also appointed focal persons for all 36 districts of Punjab.

Chief Postmaster Abdul Ghaffar Brohi has issued instructions to the staff to ensure prompt distribution of all the registration number plates received. According to sources, steps are being taken in other provinces including the federal capital to provide this service to the people.
