GPSC RTO Inspector Syllabus

GPSC RTO Inspector Syllabus

GPSC: GPSC means Gujarat Public Service Commission to select applicants for civil service jobs in the Indian state of Gujarat according to the merits of the applicants and the rules of reservation. It can give advice to the president and the governors of any state. As per Article no.316 Constitution of India, the State government has the power to select members and chairman of their own state’s PSC

RTO Inspector: The Regional Transport Office or Regional Transport Authority (RTO / RTA) is the organization of the Indian government responsible for maintaining a database of drivers and a database of vehicles for various states of IndiaThe RTO is also responsible to inspect the vehicle’s insurance and clear the pollution test. The RTO identifies untaxed vehicles, and identify keepers of cars entering various Indian states, or who exceed speed limits on a road that has speed cameras by matching the cars to their keepers utilizing the RTO database.
