Kolkata traffic police has a habit of registering fake traffic cases against vehicles. (besides stopping ambulances to let politicians pass)
Now a days they are sending sms on the mobile when a case is registered against your vehicles. One can then check the details of the cases in the kolkatatrafficpolice.net website. Last I checked there were no less than 17 pending cases against my vehicle for the period of almost 3 yrs and most of the are totally fake. All these cases are minor cases like violating the stop line , or the yellow light etc and each one amounts to a fine of Rs 100.
These cases or "citations" remain with the police for 15 days during which one can pay them online . After than they are lodged with the courts and are payable at court only.
On enquiry I found that courts settle these cases in Lok Adalats which are held periodically.
A visit to the fb page shows that many people are now challenging these fake citations by ?? messaging and sometimes , the cases are removed.
What I want to know is how do I know when these lok adalats are held and what is the procedure of settling them?
