[Resolved]  Municipal Corporation Chennai — rto, jayanagar, bangalore

I am also a physically handicapped person affected by polio in my left leg. I own a Tata Nano automatic car, which I recently retrofitted with Push pull attachment as per RTO instructions to convert it to INVALID CARRIAGE to obtain licence. I spent Rs.30, 000/- for retro-fitment. I also didn't require any retro-fitment as I am able to operate the car with my right leg since it is automatic. I contacted Jayanagar RTO, Bangalore for converting the car to INVALID CARRIAGE many times. The response was very bad. None of the staff members are aware of the rules. They do not treat the physically handicapped persons or seniors with dignity or respect. I am a 63 years old man with disability. Finally one lady was kind enough to guide me to ARTO. I explained him everything. He told me that they have stopped now this practice of converting the vehicle to INVALID CARRIAGE. He instructed me to apply for learners licence online and subsequently we will convert the vehicle to INVALID CARRIAGE. Today, I contacted him for learners licence, which I had applied online for today's slot and told him that as per your instructions I have come today. He reverted back saying I have not told at all. He told me to go to counter 4 and get it verified for retro-fitment. Nobody gave proper reply.

I am writing this with deep pain and regret that the system in India has not changed and will not change for better. Hope somebody will listen to our problems and help us sort out this problem.
