Air Pollution Control Awareness Month Inaugurated

Madikeri, Nov 6: An inaugural ceremony was held on Monday at the Regional Transport Office (RTO) premises to mark the commencement of 'Air Pollution Control Awareness Month'.

Speaking on the occasion, Shubha, Member Secretary of the Legal Services Authority, discussed various measures such as adopting vehicle pooling, segregating wet and dry waste, using bicycles, and maintaining the cleanliness of vehicles.

She also informed the public that, under an initiative by the Legal Services Authority, pending transport department cases—dating from 1991 to 2025—can be settled by paying a fine with a 50% concession. She urged the public to take advantage of this opportunity.

Regional Transport Officer Satish stated that, to ensure the success of this government initiative, several programs have been planned. These include proper vehicle maintenance, tree planting, and organizing various competitions for school children to raise awareness about air pollution.

Present at the event were Darshan (Manager, KSRTC Madikeri Unit), office superintendents Salima and Mohan Kumar, and Motor Vehicle Inspectors Mohan Kumar, Pradeep, Shashikumar, and Rita, among others.
