The Haryana government led by Chief Minister Manohar Lal Khattar has announced to allow the general public to bid for super VIP numbers such as '0001' for their vehicles. Khattar, in a said Cabinet meeting held in Chandigarh, said that all "VIP" registration numbers of vehicles will be available for the general public. Such numbers will be allotted through e-auction.

"After this announcement, many among the general public who are fond of buying fancy numbers for their vehicles will be able to purchase these VIP numbers currently allotted to 179 state government vehicles...," said the statement.

There are 179 state government vehicles using the '0001' number plate in Haryana alone. The aim of the move is to generate additional revenue for the state from e-auctioning of the fancy number plates, that can attract bidding as low as Rs 5 lakh.

CM Khattar also said that he is withdrawing "VIP" registration numbers of four vehicles of his convoy to make them available to the common public. The chief minister made the announcement during a discussion on the amendment in the Haryana Motor Vehicles Rules-1993.
