It will also detect traffic violations like speeding, jumping signals, and improper lane usage, generating e-challans automatically as per the CMV Act 1980. 

The new system has been approved by the Competent Authority and will be operational across Sikkim from 25th May 2024. 

All vehicle owners, including government vehicles, are advised to keep their documents up to date. Any issues regarding the issuance of E-challan can be reported to the concerned SP/ RTO of the district.
