Dear Mr. P C Agarwal,
Another useful attachment from your side. It is a welcoming step to get a Learner's license online. Currently, the renewal of a regular license is also a cumbersome process. You have only about two hours to submit the renewal form with all annexures previously prepared. I hope this procedure also gets simplified.
