The goal is to double the revenue from bus terminals by June. The special Assistant to Chief Minister Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Rangeez Ahmad said this during the Press conference held on Wednesday here at civil secretariat, Peshawar.

Once the system is fully digitalized, applicants will be able to apply online, requiring only a visit for the driving test.
