It seems that the Mumbai traffic police's CCTV challan system has picked up from Day 1. Within 24 hours of Mumbai's CCTV challan system's launch, 324 motorists have received e-challans on their mobile phones via SMS.
The initiative was launched on Tuesday for helping in issuing fines to traffic violators without traffic police personnel being present on the site.
Joint Commissioner of Police, Milind Bharambe said, "Within just 24 hours, we have generated 324 challans and the helpline numbers are already ringing with queries."
Out of the 324 offenders, most of the motorists were fined for overstepping the pedestrian or zebra crossing.
Teaffic Police believed that most challans would be issued for violations like signal jumping, talking on mobile phone while driving, riding triple seat on a two-wheeler, riding without helmet, speeding, driving without seat belts or overstepping the zebra crossing.
At present, 20 constables monitor the CCTVs from the control room to catch offenders and 5 enter details like registration number, location and date of offence into the system to generate challans.
It should be noted that&nbsp;Mumbai it the only city in the country where police have started sending challans on mobile phones.&nbsp;
