With a population of more than 60 lakhs, it becomes very important for police to ensure complete safety of the citizens on roads in Ahmedabad. Thanks to the e-Challan system, the Ahmedabad Traffic Police has managed to keep a tab on the traffic so that no violations take place on the roads. As a part of this process, traffic police release an e-challan in case they find someone breaking traffic rules and regulations. The status of an e-challan can be checked by visiting the official website of Ahmedabad Traffic Police. To make the e-challan system more smooth and convenient, an SMS is usually sent to the violator facility on the number registered with the local RTOs.
If a person wishes to pay the challan online, they can do it using the portal available on the website, https://payahmedabadechallan.org/. The e-challan status can also be checked by entering the vehicle number on the same website. If there’s a pending challan, all the information is displayed on the page including the fine amount. There are multiple modes of payment available on the website using which a user can make the payment. Before sending an e-challan, the police control rooms also check the CCTV footage as evidence of the violation. Some of the common violations for which e challan Ahmedabad is issued are jumping a red light, overspeeding or racing a vehicle, driving without a helmet or seat belt, talking on mobile phones while driving, etc.
Ahmedabad Traffic Police have also launched an app to simplify the e-challan system. This app can be downloaded from Google Play Store/App Store. By making use of this app, the traffic police can check violations and generate e-challan. This app also provides the basic facility to cities such as checking e-challan status and paying e-challan. In order to use these facilities, you need to enter your vehicle’s registration number in this mobile app. Nearest parking facility, towed vehicle location, etc are some of the other key features of this mobile application.
For online payment of e-challan using the Ahmedabad e-challan payment system website, the vehicle number has to be entered manually after which all the details are available with the payment options. The website is very much convenient and safe to use. You can also make payment through the Parivahan Sewa website.
Once the payment is complete, an SMS is sent to the registered mobile number to notify the successful completion of payment. You can download the e-challan receipt using these websites. Alternatively, if you wish to make an offline payment of the challan, then you can visit RTO Offices in Gujarat and pay the fine. If a person feels that a wrong challan has been issued against his/her name, then he can inform about it by either writing it to the traffic police or using the helpline numbers mentioned on the state transport website. There’s usually a separate complaint column mentioned on these websites through which citizens can file a complaint or inform about the wrong challan.
