The CM Yogi Adityanath’s decision has been welcomed by lakhs of vehicle owners, particularly those who were previously charged with violating traffic rules.

Drivers who believe they have been wrongly issued challans can file complaints directly on the website, the statement said. It may be noted that a mobile notification is also sent when a vehicle’s challan is deducted, ensuring prompt communication.

The govt statement added, “Following the cancellation of old pending challans, the drivers should not panic after this period. They can fill online traffic challans sitting at home.
