What is e-Challan?
Jump Tag Icon

e-Challan is an electronic ticketing system implemented by the Delhi Traffic Police as an alternative to manual challan (ticket) issuance for traffic violations in Delhi (like driving/riding a vehicle without valid car/bike insurance). It helps reduce paperwork and improve efficiency.

Data captured through the e-Challan system helps monitor enforcement activities by the agencies concerned, like traffic police, pollution control authorities and transport department. It makes it easier for authorities to identify those who break the rules consistently, thus helping them take appropriate measures for road safety.

e-challan provides convenience for violators as they can easily make their payments online via internet banking or mobile wallets. It encourages more people to pay fines on time instead of waiting for a months-long court hearing after being caught with a traffic violation in Delhi.
