Bengaluru, Aug 21 (PTI) The Karnataka government on Thursday announced a one-time 50 per cent concession on penalties for pending cases recorded through the Police Department’s mobile e-challan system.
Mobile e-challans are digital traffic violation notices sent via SMS or email.
According to a government order dated August 21, the concession will apply from August 23 to September 12.
The order noted that the Commissioner of Transport and Road Safety, Bengaluru, had requested a similar concession to settle cases registered in the Transport Department prior to 2018-19.
However, after consideration, the government decided to extend the concession only to cases under the Police Department’s mobile e-challan system, the order stated.
The Bengaluru Traffic Police said the fines can be paid through its website (https://btp.gov.in/), mobile application, or at the nearest traffic police station. PTI JR SSK
