Supreme Court extends mandatory motor insurance cover for new vehicles; cars to get 4 years, two wheelers 6 years
The Supreme Court ordered new cars to have four years of insurance and two-wheelers to have six years. Justices said, "It is in the interest of road safety that the period be enhanced by one year." This move helps accident victims get compensation faster as many vehicles currently run without insurance.
