Electric scooter owner cut invoice due to strange reason

In a strange incident, the Kerala Traffic Police has fined an electric scooter owner for not having a valid Pollution Under Control certificate.

Images of vehicles and e-challans issued by traffic police have surfaced on Facebook and other social media platforms.

The picture of the challan shows that it was issued on September 6 (Tuesday) at Nilanchery in Malappuram district of Kerala.

Users have appealed to Union Transport Minister Nitin Gadkari to look into the matter.

Cartok said in a report, that the scooter was Ather 450X.

It was first launched in 2018 by the Bengaluru-based company and its third generation entered the market in July this year.

The photo, which is now going viral on social media, shows that the amount of the challan is ₹ 250.

The receipt also mentions section 213(5)(e) of the Motor Vehicles Act, 1988.

This is not the first time such a strange challan has come to the fore.

In July, a man in Kerala was fined for riding his motorcycle without sufficient fuel with passengers.

The man posted a picture of the e-challan sent by the Kerala Traffic Police on his Facebook page, from where it went viral.

The man was riding his Royal Enfield motorcycle when the challan was issued and the amount was ₹ 250.

Then, a car owner in Uttar Pradesh got a challan for not wearing a helmet while driving.

To express his anger, he started wearing a helmet regularly while driving.

The Ather scooter is powered by a 5.4 kW brushless electric motor and 2.4 kWh lithium-ion battery pack.

This scooter can accelerate from zero to 40 km / h in 3.9 seconds.

It has a top speed of 80 km/h and can go up to 75 km on a single charge.
