This step will also help in curbing the corruption involved in the cash transactions. Police have also informed that the driver’s license would be seized if he/she is caught thrice breaking the road safety regulations.
Through the new e-challan system, the public will now be able to pay their fines through the Paytm facility. Card and cash transactions and will not be encouraged so as to, as mentioned earlier, to help curb the bribes.
The superintendent of police (Visakhapatnam Rural), Mr. Rahul Dev Sharma, said: “The idea is not to get the payment on the spot but to facilitate easier ways of getting the fines paid.
