Challans in Kozhikode
Situated along the Malabar Coast in "God's own country" - Kerala, Kozhikode is the largest urban area in the state, famous for its spices and scenic beaches. But since it is a booming tourist spot, Kozhikode has become increasingly prone to traffic jams, one-way traffic violations, and road accidents.
Kerala is known for handling its traffic violations rather strictly with hefty fines. While these challans may be a problem for motorists, paying them is not. You can now settle your traffic challans online through the traffic e-Challan system. It makes it easier for citizens and tourists to pay their traffic e-challans quickly and go about their day.
