Transport dept to send e-challan notices via WhatsApp chatbot
1 2 Lucknow: It's time to check your mobile phone for any e-challan notices that you may have received from the state transport department's WhatsApp Chatbot service (8005441222), and pay the amount. The transport department has taken up a massive exercise to realise challans pending for 2024-25. As there are over one-third of total pending challans where the mobile numbers are either wrong or missing in registration details of the vehicles, the department has advised owners to check the status of challans against their vehicles on the portal themselves and make payment to avoid stricter punishment. "Currently, we are sending notices for challans pending for 2024-25. Later, we will start a similar exercise for 2022 and 2023," transport commissioner Brajesh Narain Singh said. A total of 36 lakh e-challan notices may be sent by the department directly to vehicle owners' mobile numbers through its WhatsApp chatbot service, which is a blue tick verified service and approved by the central govt, for three financial years starting 2022-23. Over 14 lakh notices will be sent for 2024-25 alone. The biggest defaulters are those who have not provided mobile numbers in vehicle registration details or have given wrong numbers. While notices may not be sent to them as of now, they may face severe punishment under the MV Act, besides legal action. According to transport department, during 2024–25, a total of 2,701,786 e-challans were issued in the state, amounting to Rs 1,411.2 crore. Of these, 22,11,244 challans remain unpaid, which is 81.8% of the total, with outstanding dues of Rs 790.45 crore (56%). Pending challans have been categorised into three categories: multi-offender vehicles, two-wheelers, and four-wheelers. Another category is of around one-third of vehicles that have wrong or no mobile numbers in registration details. Four-wheelers are the biggest defaulters, comprising over 53.9% of the total unpaid challans amounting to around Rs 552.66 crore. The average is Rs 4,641 per challan. Two-wheelers are the second biggest defaulters. There are 2,79,296 multi-offender vehicles with 8,71,353 pending challans (39.4%) amounting to Rs 338.76 crore. Similarly, 2,21,538 mobile numbers are linked to more than one challan, covering 10,66,151 challans (48.2%) and dues of Rs 432.94 crore. At least 8,06,970 pending challans (36.5%) with Rs 270.6 crore in dues lack valid contact numbers. Within these, 'NULL' entries account for 384,301 challans, worth Rs 128.25 crore, and numbers with fewer than 10 digits account for 4,21,029 challans worth Rs 141.9 crore. It is for the first time that any govt department is sending e-challan notices through WhatsApp Chatbot service, which also ensures cyber security. The department is also sensitising people on facts like notices will come only from one number 8005441222 with a blue tick and that payments will be accepted only through official govt portal ( No payment should be made via QR codes, UPI, or bank accounts. Notably, in June 2023, the UP govt had cancelled all pending challans issued between Jan 1, 2017, and Dec 31, 2021. Stay updated with the latest local news from your city on Times of India (TOI).

New flyovers fail to clear Ranchi's traffic gridlock
1 2 Ranchi: Even after the inauguration of three major flyovers in the state capital, traffic chaos continues to plague Ranchi. Congestion on Ratu Road, Lalpur, Kutchery, and Kantatoli remains severe, while near Siramtoli, jams are routine because of the ongoing construction of a connecting corridor. "Every evening, it takes me 40 minutes to cover what should actually be a 10-minute ride. The flyover is good, but below it, the market is so crowded that traffic moves inch by inch," said Ramesh Singh, an autorickshaw driver who operates on Ratu Road. Daily commuters echo the same frustration. "We thought the Kantatoli and Siramtoli flyovers would cut down our travel time, but diversions and unfinished stretches only make things worse," said Anjali Mishra, who drives daily from Lalpur to Harmu. NHAI regional officer M T Attarde said, "We received reports suggesting a lack of public awareness. On Ratu Road, jams are caused by markets where supplies from other districts are delivered. To resolve this, we may have to talk to RMC for market arrangements. It will ease the traffic downside." Traffic jams near Siramtoli are caused due to the construction of the connecting flyover between Kantatoli and Siramtoli. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like This Could Be the Best Time to Trade Gold in 5 Years IC Markets Learn More Undo People are forced to take diversions even for simple routes. "The half-finished connecting corridor between Kantatoli and Siramtoli forces vehicles to take long detours, funnelling traffic into already saturated by-lanes," said Ram Naresh, another auto driver. The 4.18 km-long Ratu Road flyover, built at Rs 291 crore was inaugurated in July 2025; the 2.4 km-long Kantatoli flyover, built at Rs 224 crore was opened in October 2024; and the 2.34 km-long, Rs 355-crore Siramtoli flyover launched in June 2025. Lalpur main road remains one of the city's worst choke points even after new flyovers. Vehicles pile up near the traffic signal because service lanes are narrow and encroached. "From Lalpur to Circular Road, it's a nightmare. Sometimes I'm late to college even though I leave 30 minutes early," said Priya Sharma, a student of St. Xavier's College.

Cop focus on parking as new pujas gear up to compete with biggies
1 2 Kolkata: With several new Durga Puja pandals across the city positioning themselves as possible top draws this year, the Kolkata Traffic Police is coordinating with local police to identify the fresh parking spots that can handle the increased footfall in these pandals. According to Lalbazar sources, at least seven puja pandals have been identified where we are expecting at least a 50%-80% jump in the number of revellers. "The challenge lies in finding space for both vehicular and pedestrian flow, as well as parking, as many of the new attractions are sandwiched between popular ones. Among them are newer ones at Chetla and Alipore, a highly congested zone during pujas, and Ultadanga-Maniktala, which also have a large number of established pujas. The other big draws have been identified at Kidderpore, Behala, and Santoshpur — all of which already have major pandals in the vicinity. In addition, multiple big pujas will be celebrating their jubilee years, including Tala Prattay and Behala Natun Dal. Hence, we need to be ready," reminded a DCP.

Learn More Undo "On Wednesday, we instructed all traffic guards to send us a list of alternative parking spots, which we will vet by the end of this month," said a senior cop at Lalbazar. Cops acknowledged that parking near pandals still remains a serious issue. "The key is to ensure there is no illegal parking that could eat up road space, especially in these key zones. From Chaturthi, we adopt the chase-and-challan policy," said a DCP at Lalbazar. "Parking lots should be marked clearly," said Dhruba Guha of Behala. "No cop could guide me to the official parking zones on RB Avenue last year. They just asked me to keep driving. Am I expected to park at Gariahat to come to the Tridhara Sammilani pandal even this year?" Guha wondered. Stay updated with the latest local news from your city on Times of India (TOI).
