Letters: Middlemen elimination

That the Insurance Regulatory and Development Authority of India (Irdai) is stepping in to get rid of middlemen is highly commendable. It is not only the so-called middlemen but their associates as well, who make a fast buck. When will the transport authorities follow Irdai? Middlemen got eliminated when the one-time registration fee was introduced for new vehicles. The next step should be to introduce the renewal of driving licences on a pan-India basis.
