Traffic violations in India are quite common. They even go unchecked due to the increasing population and the lack of human resources, fewer resources, and inadequate technology.<\/p>\n
It is not rare for us to witness someone casually jumping a red-light or not pulling over if the cops ask us to. Over and above all of this, most people try to escape the situation of getting fined by bribing the authorities.<\/p>\n
They do this since they want to avoid the hassle of submitting their license, going to court, and dealing with the further procedure. It is a tiresome job as per them, and bribing is an easier solution.<\/p>\n

It is associated with the web portal of the government, called Vahan and Sarathi.<\/p>\n You can make online challan payments and also check your challan status on these websites.<\/p>\n Introducing e-challan has also minimized the chances of the violators scooting away by only paying a fraction of the challan (when in physical form), known as a bribe.<\/p>\n It has also decreased the payment process time because everything with the internet is simpler and faster!<\/p>\n The payments are directly credited to the concerned RTO\u2019s account, avoiding any intermediaries or unethical practices coming in between.<\/p>\n You can either get pulled over by the police or come under the automatic surveillance cameras while violating any traffic rules.
