The Ministry of Road Transport & Highways (MoRTH) has been facilitating computerization of over 1300+ Road Transport Offices (RTOs) across the country. RTOs issue Registration Certificate (R.C.) & Driving License (D.L.) that are mandatory requirements and are valid across the country, subject to certain provisions and permissions.

With wide variations in state policies and manual/ system based procedures being followed across the country, it had become necessary to define same standards for these documents on a pan-India level to ensure interoperability, correctness and timely availability of information. SCOSTA committee setup for this purpose had recommended a uniform standardized software across the country. The Ministry thus entrusted National Informatics Centre (N.I.C.) with the task of standardizing & deploying two softwares – VAHAN for Vehicle Registration and SARATHI for Driving Licenses and of compiling the data with respect to Vehicle Registration and Driving Licenses of all the states in State Register and National Register.The applications VAHAN & SARATHI were conceptualized to capture the functionalities as mandated by Central Motor Vehicle Act, 1988 as well as State motor vehicle Rules with customization in the core product to suit the requirements of 36 States and UTs.

Our Vision

To improve the quality of service delivery to the citizen and the quality of work environment of the RTOs.

Our Mission

To automate all Vehicle Registration and Driving License related activities in transport authorities of country with introduction of smart card technology to handle issues like inter state transport vehicle movement and to create state and national level registers of vehicles/DL information

Our Objectives

To provide :

Better services to Transport Department as well as citizen

Quick implementation of government policies from time to time

Improved image of Government & Department

Instant access of Vehicle/DL information to other government departments

The latest initiative has been to centralize both these applications for ensuring higher tranparency, security and reliability of operations through a countrywide unified database and provision of a highly citizen and trade centric web enabled environment. The new application being developed would provide for a multi-user environment wherein the end customers (citizens) may be empowered to perform most of the RTO related transactions (including payments) either from the comfort of home or from authorized third party service provider/s in their vicinity. This will also help, to a large extent, in removing the hassles and queues faced by citizens currently (in visiting RTOs for elementary types of transactions),minimizing the extensive paperwork currently being done on the ground and reducing the possibility of middlemen exploiting the uneducated / uninformed citizens. Going forward, mobile based applications would be developed and systems utilizing the Aadhar Based identification would also be integrated with the Unified RTO database for higher security and ease of operations.

With steady steps in direction of achievement of its Vision, Mission and objectives , the ministry is progressing towards provision of improved service access to citizens with quality and efficiency in service delivery, transparency in the system and reduced workload for RTO staff.

As the sun rises on the first day of Medam, the Malayalam month that marks the beginning of the traditional Hindu calendar, millions of people across Kerala and other parts of South India celebrate Vishu. This joyous occasion is a time for family reunions, feasting, and offering gratitude to the divine.

Vishu is celebrated with various customs and traditions, each with its own significance. One of the most popular traditions is the Vishukkani, which means “the first sight.” In this ritual, an elaborate arrangement of auspicious items, including flowers, fruits, vegetables, grains, and gold coins, is set up the night before Vishu in front of the deity’s idol or image. The arrangement is viewed by the family members as soon as they wake up on Vishu morning, and it is believed that the first sight of the Vishukkani brings prosperity and good luck for the rest of the year.

Another important custom of Vishu is the Vishukkaineetam, in which elders of the family give money to younger members as a token of love and blessings. This custom represents the continuity of family ties and the sharing of wealth and prosperity.

Vishu also involves a lot of feasting, with families cooking and sharing traditional dishes like Vishu Kanji, a rice porridge made with coconut milk, and Vishu Sadya, a grand feast with various vegetarian dishes served on a banana leaf.

As we celebrate this joyous occasion, the team at ‘areekode news‘ extends our warmest greetings to all our Hindu viewers. May this Vishu bring you and your loved ones prosperity, happiness, and peace. May the new year be filled with opportunities to grow, learn, and connect with the divine.

At ‘areekode news‘, we embrace the rich cultural traditions of our community, and we are honored to be a part of your celebrations. We hope this Vishu brings you closer to your loved ones and strengthens the bonds of family and friendship.

As we look forward to another year filled with hope and promise, let us continue to foster goodwill and understanding within our community. Happy Vishu from the team at ‘Areekode News‘!

Vishu is a time for renewal, reflection, and celebration. As we welcome the new year, let us embrace the traditions and customs that define our culture, and let us remember the values that bring us closer as a community. May this Vishu be a reminder of the abundant blessings that surround us, and may it inspire us to spread joy, kindness, and compassion wherever we go.

The most significant of rituals related to Vishu celebration is the viewing of the Vishukkani, which literally means ‘the first thing seen on the day of Vishu’. Vishukkani consists of a sacred ceremonial preparation of all auspicious items considered to be the omen of good luck and prosperity. These include coconut, betel leaves, arecanut, Kanikkonna flower (Golden Shower), raw rice, golden cucumber, jack fruit, a traditional metallic mirror, gold jewellery, a holy book, new cotton dhoti and coins or currency notes. All these articles are placed in an Uruli (a special vessel made of bell metal). A traditional metal lamp called ‘Nilavilakku’ is also lighted and placed alongside the Vishukkani before the deity of Lord Krishna (representing Lord Vishnu). The lamp is lighted by an elder female member of the family in the early hours on the day of Vishu and the others are led with their eyes closed to get the sight of Vishukkani as the first thing in the morning. Verses from the Ramayana are recited and firecrackers are burst.

During Vishu people buy new clothes or Puthukodi to wear on that occasion and as per the custom give money to family members and friends called as Vishukkaineetam. They also prepare a feast or sadya which includes cuisines like Mampazhappulissery, Veppampoorasam, Vishu kanji and Vishu kutu. As per the ancient belief an auspicious Vishukkani seen at dawn of this day is considered lucky for the entire year so it is prepared with lots of care to make it a positive sight. Reading verses from the epic Ramayana after viewing the Vishukkani is auspicious and it is believed that randomly opening a page from this epic and reading it will have a bearing on that person’s life in that year. As per Indian astrology Vishu festival comes when the sun crosses the plane of the earth’s equator, making night and day approximately equal length. The meaning of the word Vishu in Sanskrit is equal and this is the day when farmers in Kerala start their agriculture activities.

Vishu is celebrated all over India under different names like Bihu in Assam, Baisakhi in Punjab, Puthandu in Tamil nadu and Bisu in Karnataka.

The Importance of Learning a New Language

Learning a new language can bring a range of benefits, both personally and professionally. In today’s globalized world, being multilingual can be a valuable asset in many careers, but there are also many other reasons why studying a new language is important.

  1. Enhances Communication

One of the most obvious benefits of learning a new language is that it can help you communicate with people from different cultures and backgrounds. Whether you’re traveling abroad, interacting with colleagues from different countries, or simply engaging with members of your local community who speak a different language, knowing another language can make it easier to connect with others and understand their perspectives.

  1. Opens Up New Opportunities

In addition to improving communication skills, knowing a second or third language can also open up new opportunities. For example, if you’re interested in working for a multinational corporation or in a field like international relations or translation, being multilingual can be a major advantage. Knowing multiple languages can also make it easier to travel and explore different countries and cultures, whether for work or pleasure.

  1. Boosts Cognitive Abilities

Learning a new language has also been shown to have cognitive benefits. Studies have found that bilingual individuals may have better memory and attentional control, as well as improved problem-solving and critical thinking skills. In addition, the process of learning a new language can improve overall cognitive flexibility, which is the ability to switch between tasks or perspectives more easily.

  1. Expands Cultural Awareness

Learning a new language can also expose you to new ideas, customs, and beliefs. This can help you better understand and appreciate different cultures and perspectives, which is especially important in today’s diverse and interconnected world. It can also help you develop a greater sense of empathy and tolerance towards others.

  1. Helps in Personal Development

Finally, learning a new language can be a rewarding personal development experience. While it can be challenging at times, the sense of accomplishment that comes with mastering a new language can boost your confidence and self-esteem. It can also help you develop valuable skills like self-discipline, patience, and perseverance.

In conclusion, studying a new language can enrich your life in many ways, from enhancing communication to expanding cultural awareness and improving cognitive abilities. Whether you’re learning for personal or professional reasons, the benefits of learning a new language are clear. So why not start exploring a new language today?

Evernote is a note-taking app that allows users to capture, organize, and share information across different devices. It allows users to take notes in various formats, including text, audio, and images, and syncs them across different devices, making it easy to access them from anywhere.

One of the things that I find particularly useful about Evernote is its flexibility. I can take notes on my phone, tablet, or computer, and they all sync seamlessly with each other. I can also organize my notes using tags, notebooks, and stacks, which makes it easy to find what I’m looking for.

Another feature that I appreciate about Evernote is its ability to search through my notes. I often have a lot of notes, and being able to search for specific keywords or phrases saves me a lot of time.

Evernote also integrates with other apps and services, such as Google Drive and Microsoft Office, which makes it easy to incorporate notes into other projects or documents.

Overall, I find Evernote to be a very useful app for staying organized and keeping track of information. Its flexibility, searchability, and integration with other services make it a valuable tool for both personal and professional use.

Android phones are susceptible to hacking and spywares that usually come to the device in the form of an attachment, a web link or images. Samsung has been focused on changing the risks that you face with Android as platforms like Samsung Knox provide the additional layer of security. Now, the company is bringing another tool that will ensure that all images are first scanned in the background before letting you open them. Samsung is calling it the Message Guard which for now is compatible with Samsung and Google’s messages app.

Zero-day exploits tend to pose a big risk for many smartphone users, even allowing the bad actors to illegally gain access to your device and all the data residing on it. Samsung wants to help prevent that with the Message Guard. Samsung has also mentioned that other third-party apps (hopefully like WhatsApp) will also be offered with the Message Guard, which could prevent a lot of mishaps.

Having said that, for the initial phase of its launch, Samsung is offering the Message Guard for those buying any of the new Galaxy S23 series phones. And later this year, other Galaxy phones will also get the feature. This is yet another useful addition from Samsung that we would like Google to integrate into Android for all devices in the near future.

You can’t expect all mobile users to have the understanding of being careful with content from unknown sources. But features like these can at least minimise any damage caused to the user. Android 14 is going to see a lot of improvements on this front, as third-party app stores could finally work like any other app on Android phones.

We are eager to see how the Message Guard works and whether it reduces the scams and hijacks that people face.
