11 taxis plying to North Sikkim challaned


GANGTOK, 18 July: A nakabandi at Chungthang by the Chungthang police resulted in 11 vehicles being challaned for not having proper documents for ferrying tourists towards North Sikkim. A total of 29 vehicles were checked and 11 were found to be plying without the required permits, it is informed.
Permits for the tourists themselves are issued by the SDM, Mangan but vehicle documents are also required to be verified. The police explain that this is necessary for vehicles travelling further into North Sikkim as the poor road conditions can lead to accidents.
