Haryana rolls out Next Gen e-challan system with fixed timelines for notices and disputes

Published: 7 October 2026 · 1 min read

What Happened

Haryana Police has implemented a Next Gen e-challan system statewide, making the traffic enforcement process fully digital, transparent and time-bound. Under the new system, a notice must be issued within three days of a traffic violation, while the vehicle owner or driver gets 45 days to either accept or challenge the challan. If a grievance is filed, authorities must dispose of it within 30 days.

Key Takeaways

The new framework aims to improve accountability in traffic enforcement by setting clear deadlines for notifications, dispute resolution and payments. Accepted challans must be paid within 90 days, and each district has designated officials to handle grievance redressal.
