SMS facility for vehicle information withdrawn

Just a few days ago, we informed you how you can get details of a vehicle regarding its owner, make, validity of registration etc. by sending an SMS to the number 092-123-57-123.  Now, the National Informatics Centre, which developed the application system for this facility, has become aware of the security implications of the information provided by this facility.  Consequently, it has blocked the access to the common user which will be now available to enforcement agencies only.  However, people who like to know more about a vehicle, if its chasis number is available to them, can visit the site www.vahan.nic.in.
