20 new E-traffic courts to be operational across Gujarat

Gandhinagar: The state law department has decided to establish 20 new e-traffic courts across the state to alleviate the burden of e-traffic operations.

Previously, the trial of e-traffic court cases throughout the entire state was exclusively conducted in the court located in Ahmedabad city. However, with the implementation of these 20 new e-traffic courts in various districts, the handling of e-challan operations will be more convenient. Court hearings related to e-challan cases will be held in the court of the Judicial Magistrate First Class, where e-challans will also be accepted. The introduction of e-courts will facilitate swift case resolutions.

Action regarding e-traffic will be taken in the following locations: Vadhai, Khergam, Subir J.M.F.C. in Navsari district; Liliya, Kukawav, and Khambha J.M.F.C. in Amreli district; Suigam and Danta in Banaskantha district; Dholera in Ahmedabad district; Veraval in Somnath district. Additionally, action will be taken by the Principal Judge in the Courts of Judicial Magistrate First Class at Panchmahal, Bhavnagar, Dahod, Porbandar, Tapi, Gir Somnath, Surendranagar, Patan, Sabarkantha, and Junagadh.

It is important to note that if a challan remains unpaid within 90 days of issuance, the court takes action by issuing a notice to the vehicle owner. DeshGujarat
