The Deputy Commissioner of Islamabad has announced that all vehicles in the federal capital will be required to have electronic tags, starting November 18.
The initiative will be applicable to vehicles registered in other provinces as well as in Islamabad.
The government will inform residents of the specific locations where tags will be distributed.
In order to improve movement monitoring, the Minister of State for the Interior, Talal Chaudhry, had previously declared that electronic tagging would be required for all vehicles entering or using the city.
Chaudhry stressed that "no vehicle will be allowed on Islamabad's roads without an e-tag."
Following the suicide bombing outside the district and sessions court in G-11, which left 12 people dead and 36 injured, this decision is a part of larger efforts to improve security throughout the capital.
The goal of the e-tagging system is to enhance security protocols and guarantee a more secure environment for citizens.
According to officials, the new tagging requirement will help police prevent and investigate crimes by allowing them to track and monitor vehicle movement.
Numerous advantages, such as better traffic control and increased national security, are anticipated with the implementation of e-tags.
Islamabad is making a big step towards becoming a smarter and safer city by putting this system into place.
