Bihar’s traffic enforcement has rapidly transitioned to a digital ecosystem, streamlining how challans are issued and paid. The Bihar State Transport Department, in collaboration with the National Informatics Centre (NIC), manages the Integrated e Challan System, connecting 75 districts through automatic number plate recognition (ANPR) cameras and mobile enforcement apps. 

In 2024 alone, the Bihar Police issued over 16 lakh e-challans, collecting more than ₹58 crore in fines for violations such as riding without a helmet, over-speeding, and driving without valid documents.

Car and two-wheeler owners can now perform an online challan check directly on the Parivahan portal or the official Bihar Transport Department site, or on the ACKO website, avoiding in-person payments.
