TT Correspondent | Siliguri | 22.11.21 : Siliguri Metropolitan Police introduced ePOS (electronic point of sale) machines for the traffic wing for cashless collection of fines on the spot from traffic violators.
“Seventy such machines have been handed over across our jurisdiction. This will facilitate easy and fast collection of fines and make it easy for people to pay up,” said a police officer. Anybody fined for traffic violation can now pay up immediately by swiping his debit or credit card or via UPI (Unified Payment Interface) or through mobile apps, he said.
So far, those fined by traffic police had to go to a bank with the challan or pay online. Police will continue to run the old arrangement too for those who don’t use cards, UPI or apps.
Gold seizure
The Directorate of Revenue Intelligence arrested a Guwahati resident, Nasir Ahmed, in Siliguri and seized from him around 2kg of gold worth Rs 99 lakh on Saturday.
Ahmed, intercepted at Jalpai More of Siliguri, was carrying the gold in a specially made belt from northeast to Calcutta.
