Introduction to e-challan status:
To make traffic services more proactive and tech-friendly, the Government of India introduced the concept of e-challan, making challan payment easier for citizens. A computer-based challan sent to traffic defaulters across India, an e-challan uses CCTVs to capture defaulters and charge them with a fine.

What happens if you do not pay an e challan on time?
