E-Tags Mandatory on All Vehicles in Punjab Including Motorcycles

CM Punjab Maryam Nawaz Sharif approved that installation of electronic tags (e-tags) will be mandatory on every vehicle, including motorcycles. The move is part of a broader law-and-order improvement and comes with a 7-day deadline for a detailed micro security plan.
