KATHMANDU, AUGUST 28

The Department of Transport Management (DoTM) is all set to resume the vehicle licensing procedure after a long-haul with strict COVID-19 safety protocols in place.

As per the new guidelines issued by DoTM in wake of the pandemic, as many as 100 applicants can appear for the examinations in one shift.

The protocol also mentions that only 25 persons can be placed in one classroom at centers. However, if the size of the examination hall is spacious, more than 25 applicants can be accommodated.

Similarly, in case of practical trials, 50 applicants can take the examinations per shift.
