E-challaning proves a costly affair
In what seems like supreme irony, the Navi Mumbai traffic police department, which set an example by being the first in the state to introduce e-challans to motorists violating traffic norms (on August 1, 2014), is currently struggling to bring down the logistical cost of posting these challans to the offenders.
Sources from the department revealed that to bring down the cost, officials are now sending e-challans via regular post instead of speed post. By doing so, the department has managed to bring down the expense from anywhere between Rs 25 and Rs 80 to Rs 8 per post. However, the department is keen on further reducing this cost to below R 5.
