Hyderabad: The Charminar police in Telangana was the first to register an FIR under the provisions of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita on Monday against two persons allegedly riding their vehicles without number plates.

“Telangana Police has registered the First FIR with Digital Signature under the Bharathiya Nyaya Sanhitha. I am happy to inform that the First FIR from Telangana under B N S has been issued today from Charminar Police Station of Hyderabad Police Commissionerate,” state DGP Ravi Gupta said in a post on ‘X’.

According to Charminar police, the two two-wheelers were found moving without number plates during vehicle checking from 11 pm of June 30 to 1 am of July 1.

The FIR was registered under Section 281 of BNS and also relevant sections of MV Act.
