Gujarat: 8 cities may go cashless for traffic fine payment

Ahmedabad | Saturday | 21st September, 2019

Summary:

The state is mulling to introduce a cashless payment system for traffic violators in the eight municipal corporations of the state. Apparently, at present traffic fines are only collected in cash. The decision by the state to allow cashless payment through debit and credit cards is being taken, given the fact that many offenders may not have a higher cash amount with them. The traffic department will be tying up with banks to allow for such cashless payment. Although the number of violations has more or less remained the same, the increase in traffic fines has helped the department net a substantial amount as fine..
