Echallan Bhavnagar

An E-Challan serves as a digitised version of a Bhavnagar RTO challan. It is a traffic ticket issued by traffic authorities in Bhavnagar to motorists who are found violating traffic regulations, just as a digital copy.

Similar to traditional paper challans, these digital copies need to be paid for in a specific timeframe, as failure to do so may lead to increased fees as a form of penalty. It is essential to note that only traffic authorities are permitted to issue and collect E-Challans.

The systems for E-Challan Bhavnagar utilise CCTV footage and Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR) cameras for electronic issuance.

• Automatic Number Plate Recognition cameras are connected to the centralised E-Challan Parivahan Bhavnagar portal, which allows instant extraction of vehicle owner details from the extensive database for on-the-spot issuance.

• Perpetrators receive notifications via text or from the Bhavnagar traffic police on site.

• Bhavnagar traffic police are equipped with E-Challan swiping machines to generate digital copies instantly.

• This process ensures a seamless operation and maintains a digital paper trail on the police server.

• Fines must be settled within 60 days through offline or online payment methods to avoid any additional penalties.

• As mentioned earlier, failure to pay within the stipulated time can result in further fines or even court summons. Hence it is essential to ensure all your E-Challans are paid before the due dates.

• E-Challans may be wrongly issued due to glitches in the systems of the CCTVs and the Automatic Number Plate Recognition camera errors.

• To cancel a wrongly issued E-Challan, you can file a complaint through the E-challan Parivahan Bhavnagar portal’s Grievance Redressal System online.

• You do not need to pay off the fines before you initiate the cancellation procedure.

• For technical issues with online traffic fine payments, you can also email your complaints or contact the website’s helpline number. The details are stated below:

  1	Email: helpdesk-echallan@gov.in
  2	Phone: 0120-4925505 (Timings: 6:00 AM - 10:00 PM)

The validity of an E-challan generally lasts up to 60 days from issuance. As stated above, the failure to pay off any E-Challans can lead to further escalations in the form of penalties or court summons. A Bhavnagar traffic police officer may also visit your residence to collect the fine in person. Further non-compliance can also result in suspension or cancellation of your driver’s licence. Hence, it is essential to settle it within that time frame, either offline or online.

As mentioned earlier, acquiring a third-party car or bike insurance is mandatory under the 1988 Motor Vehicle Act. Although this requirement protects any damages incurred by the third-party individual or vehicle in the event of an accident, it fails to provide coverage for your own vehicle.

Investing in comprehensive two-wheeler insurance or four-wheeler insurance ensures that your vehicle is protected in the face of adversities as well. Not only does a four or two-wheeler insurance cover damages incurred during a road accident, but it also protects your vehicle from damages incurred by natural disasters.

Moreover, with our user-friendly website, buying a new insurance policy or even renewing an existing one has become seamless and stress-free. You can also use the online insurance calculator to compare the premium rates of various packages to choose a policy that not only fits your needs but also your budget.

The introduction of the E-Challan system has made the issuance and payment of challans easier. However, citizens must adhere to traffic rules more strictly to not only ensure they avoid the burden of having to pay fines but also to maintain road safety and better driving conduct.
