Cricketers have divided opinions on whether one should play for numbers and records or not. However, there are some digits that one
needs to worry about no matter what. When Harbhajan Singh’s newly-acquired black Hummer drove into the city on Monday, the huge vehicle did not have a registration number on it.
UT traffic police officials said the vehicle would be challaned on Tuesday when they have substantial evidence. SP (traffic) HS Doon said, “Be it an international cricketer or a common man, nobody is above the law. If Harbhajan is moving around in his SUV without a number he will definitely be challaned.”
How the SUV, which is the civilian version of US Army’s Humvee (High Mobility Multi-purpose Wheeled Vehicle), reached the city from Jalandhar without a registration number is a question for another day, as it was Bhajji’s non-celebrity cousin, who drove it to Chandigarh. Playing it down, Harbhajan Singh said, “Perhaps rain has washed down the number slip. I have got three photo copies of it inside the car. I have just returned from Mumbai and don’t know much about it.”
But traffic police says paper slips are not valid and it has to be a proper plate even for the temporary number, which is valid for a month’s time till the vehicle gets registered. Advertisement
