Insert new clause 3.1.7.5 and 3.1.7.6 after clause 3.1.7.4
3.1.7.5 “School Bus” means vehicles designed and constructed specially
for schools, college, and other educational Institutions.
3.1.7.6 “Sleeper Coach” means vehicles designed and constructed with
additional provision/berth for passengers to sleep while travelling.
(Justification: Amendment is proposed to bring in uniformity in definitions of
Special Purpose Vehicles in AIS/IS and CMVR. Definitions available in standards
such AIS-125 for Road Ambulances, AIS-119 for Sleeper Coaches, AIS-063 for
School Buses and in AIS-124 for Motor Caravans are more comprehensive. So it is
proposed to add these definitions in AIS-053)
