ISLAMABAD, Dec 18 (APP):The district administration of Islamabad on Thursday has continued its vehicle compliance drive with 13 M-Tag points and 4 vehicle emission testing booths now operational across the city.
According to official figures, 82,133 vehicles have been issued M-Tags so far, while 6,150 vehicles have completed emission inspections. In the last 24 hours, authorities issued 1,817 M-Tags and carried out 408 emission inspections, reflecting the daily progress of the system.
Under the current setup, 13 M-Tag issuance points are providing registration services to vehicle owners. These points are fully functional and are processing vehicles on a routine basis. Alongside this, 4 emission testing booths are conducting inspections to check exhaust emissions and identify vehicles that do not meet set standards.
Official data shows that since the start of operations, 82,133 vehicles have been issued M-Tags. These tags are being linked to vehicles to help authorities identify and monitor them through automated systems. At the same time, 6,150 vehicles have undergone emission inspections to assess smoke output and compliance with emission rules.
The performance report for the last 24 hours indicates that 1,817 additional vehicles received M-Tags during this period. The report also notes that 408 vehicles were inspected for emissions in a single day. These figures are part of the routine monitoring shared by the administration to ensure transparency and measure daily output.
In parallel, enforcement actions against smoke-emitting vehicles are ongoing at different checkpoints across the city. Teams are conducting checks at multiple locations to identify vehicles producing excessive smoke. Vehicles found violating emission rules are being addressed under the existing framework.
The district administration has also confirmed that the installation of M-Tag readers is underway on various highways and major roads across Islamabad. These readers are being placed to support automated monitoring of vehicles entering and moving through key routes.
According to officials, the newly installed readers will automatically scan the M-Tag status of each passing vehicle. This system will allow authorities to verify compliance without stopping traffic for manual checks. The administration stated that the aim is to integrate M-Tag data with road monitoring to improve enforcement efficiency.
Authorities added that the combination of M-Tag issuance, emission testing, roadside checks, and automated readers is part of a coordinated approach. Daily reports are being used to review progress, identify gaps, and plan further actions.
Vehicle owners are being encouraged to obtain M-Tags and complete emission testing through the designated points and booths. Officials said the services are available on a routine basis and that further expansion will be guided by daily performance data.
The district administration reiterated that monitoring will continue across the city, with a focus on increasing coverage, maintaining daily reporting, and ensuring that vehicles comply with M-Tag and emission requirements.
