what to do if driving licence is lost

To replace a lost driving licence (DL), you must immediately:

• File a First Information Report (FIR) at the nearest police station, which is crucial for safety and the application process.
• Apply for a duplicate DL online via the Sarathi Parivahan portal or in person at your local Regional Transport Office (RTO).
• Submit the required documents, which typically include a copy of the FIR, Form LLD, and proof of identity and address, along with the prescribed fee.
