The Supreme Court (SC) sought response from five states on a contempt plea alleging non-compliance of order related to ensuring high security registration plates for all vehicles. A bench of Chief Justice J S Khehar and Justices Adarsh Goel and D Y Chandrachud issued notice to Goa, Uttar Pradesh, Kerala, Punjab and Madhya Pradesh and sought their replies in four weeks. The apex court had in 2012 asked several states and Union Territories to ensure high security registration plates (HSRP) for all vehicles by June 15 that year or face contempt of court proceedings in accordance with Article 129 of the Indian Constitution.
