The full form of RTO is Regional Transport Office. It is an Indian Government government agency responsible for rendering services like the registration of vehicles, issue of driver’s licenses, collection of excise duty such as road tax and enforcement of road transportation rules in India. Every state and city have their own Regional Transport Office (RTO). Every R.T.O is responsible to carry out the functions and activities that are laid out in Motor Vehicles Act, 1988. RTOs in India are reported as the most corrupt department for bribing every day. In 2014, The Union Minister of Road Transport, Nitin Gadkari, proposed partial closing of RTOs by increasing online functions in order to curb corruption.
