In Indore, a major commercial hub in Madhya Pradesh, truckers and transporters believe that the introduction of an advanced vehicle monitoring system at checkpoints will promote transparency and improve the logistics flow. They estimate that around 4,000 commercial vehicles depart from Indore daily, a number that increases during festive periods. However, they express concerns about the effectiveness of current monitoring systems and call for the implementation of technology-based solutions to oversee vehicle movements at checkpoints. The Indore Truck Operators and Transport Association, along with other transport groups, have reached out to Minister of Transport Rao Uday Pratap Singh, advocating for the adoption of a tech-focused monitoring system to ensure smooth and transparent vehicle operations. Additionally, they suggest following the Gujarat model and have requested the establishment of a helpline and an official app for reporting issues. The recent removal of interstate checkposts in Madhya Pradesh was met with enthusiasm by transporters who have long sought to streamline transport operations and address corruption concerns.
