  "summary": "The Supreme Court has proposed a pilot project to curb the growing number of uninsured vehicles in India, which currently stands at nearly 56% of all vehicles on the roads. The court directed that fuel be supplied only to vehicles with valid insurance, and that ANPR cameras be linked with insurance databases to automatically issue e-challans to uninsured vehicles. The court also called for handheld devices to be provided to traffic police to check insurance status on the spot, longer mandatory third-party insurance for new vehicles, and faster disposal of pending motor accident compensation cases.",
