The Delhi transport department's order to motorists to affix their vehicles with high-security registration plate (HSRP) and colour-coded stickers has created a stir in the national capital. The transport department was going to carry out an enforcement drive against vehicles that don’t have high-security registration plates, but it has now been put on hold.
So do you know anything about the high-security registration plate (HSRP)? What is a high-security registration plate after all?
HSRPs will be an aluminium plate with a hologram on it. These holograms will have a laser-branded permanent identification number, which cannot be copied. The colour-coded stickers would be meant to identify vehicles based on their fuel type. But what is interesting is that these stickers will include details like the registration number, the registering authority, a laser-branded PIN, and the engine and chassis numbers of the vehicle.
How to order HSRP and colour-coded stickers?
-For high-security number plate the owner would need to visit bookmyhsrp.com/index.aspx for registration. This site is specifically for Delhi and Uttar Pradesh.
-He would have to then choose between the option of private and public transport.
-The owner will further have to mark the fuel type- petrol, diesel, CNG, electric, CNG cum petrol and proceed with marking the vehicle category.

According to an estimate, about 50 lakh two-wheelers and 21 lakh cars reportedly do not have HSRPs in Delhi.
Meanwhile, the Delhi Government has issued a new directive regarding high-security registration plate (HSRP) and colour coded sticker on vehicles. Transport minister Kailash Gahlot has directed the transport department to delay enforcement against vehicles that don’t have high-security registration plates (HSRP) or colour-coded fuel stickers till further orders.
