In India, traffic violations occur almost every day. Because of a lack of human resources or adequate technology, most of these cases used to go unchecked.

The Indian government, however, has focused on enforcing the system's strictness and improving road safety with the New Motor Vehicles Act, 2019. The UP police have been implementing various measures to improve the traffic standard in the state. As a part of this, multiple traffic rules and road safety awareness rallies have been conducted by the UP Police.

The UP traffic police have issued over 5000 e-challans to traffic offenders during the last week of May 2022 in the Noida and Greater Noida region alone. The e-challan service is one method that assists the administration in this policing. People having a ticket in their name can now pay their challans online through e-challan payment portals.
