The notification said, "Provided that the certificate of a freedom fighter is submitted to the Inspector of motor vehicles while issuing or renewing fitness certificate."
"The fee exemption shall cease to exist as soon as the motor vehicle is transferred to any other person, and the transfer shall take effect only after the payment of fees as applicable to each case," it adds.
