Telangana has given the green light for setting up 37 automated testing stations through a specially created special purpose vehicle (SPV), marking a significant move to modernise the vehicle inspection framework in the state. The approval is expected to enhance efficiency and standardisation in vehicle fitness testing operations. The automated centres will replace traditional manual inspection methods, introducing technology-driven quality assurance in the certification process. This initiative aligns with the state's broader push to adopt digital solutions for administrative functions and improve citizen services. The SPV structure will facilitate centralised management and operational oversight of the testing stations across Telangana's districts, ensuring uniform standards and faster turnaround times for vehicle owners seeking fitness certificates. The move is anticipated to reduce bureaucratic delays and enhance compliance with emission and safety norms.
