Now, the question arises how a traffic violator gets E-Challan? Continue reading below to know the answer-
ADCP (Operations and Security) Vineet Kumar talking to True Scoop informed that a traffic violator gets E-Challan directly on their registered mobile number via Text message i.e. SMS.
"Traffic violators automatically get a message from parivahan.gov.in. It is official government's website. The message also contains a link. When you visit the link you will get all the information about the details of E-Challan like when the challan was cut, on what offences, at which chowk etc."
"Then, there itself you can make the payment of the E-Challan. When an E-Challan gets cut, traffic violators get text message on the registered mobile number based on the RC of the vehicle. In that you get government's website's link- parivahan.gov.in. There you can make the payment as well. M-Parivahan App can also be used to check and pay E-Challans."
According to ADCP (Operations and Security) Vineet Kumar, on an average 300 E-Challans are being issued on daily basis. The most common violation that people are doing is red-light jump. Currently, our focus is mostly on red light violations.
ADCP Vineet further said that cameras are also detecting wrong side driving, and if vehicle are on Zebra Crossing or now. But currently, E-Challans are focused on red-light jumps and hence sending online challans mostly on red light violation.
ADCP further informed that E-Challan for without helmet and seat belt have not started yet.
