No paying cash for traffic fines in Goa from March 1
Panaji: The traffic cell of Goa police will embrace the digital pathway in a move aimed at streamlining the payment process for motorists.
The traffic cell on Wednesday announced that, starting from March 1, cash payments will no longer be accepted for the compounding of traffic challans issued under the Motor Vehicle Act and Rules. All challans will now be compounded digitally in a shift towards online payment methods. tnn
The decision, by traffic cell, seeks to simplify the payment process and encourage the use of digital platforms for settling fines.
The new system will only accept payments through two modes — QR code payment wherein a QR code will be generated on the e-challan machine, which can be scanned by violators to make the payment or pay through the online portal wherein a direct link will be provided to violators through the official website https://echallan.parivahan.gov.in/index/accused-challan. The link will allow violators to pay their uncompounded challans digitally.
The traffic cell asked motorists to take note of this change and to use the provided digital platforms for compounding any traffic challans issued to them.
The transport department’s enforcement section, which is also responsible for penalising traffic violations, already mandates digital payments and has been implementing seamless processing of fines over the past couple of years. With Goa police traffic cell also adopting this mechanism, the transactions will now be fully digital and make the process efficient and transparent.
