Punjab Chief Minister Maryam Nawaz Sharif has launched the “One App” digital traffic challan system, marking a significant step in modernising traffic law enforcement in the country.
The newly introduced system is the first of its kind in Pakistan to issue traffic challans based on video evidence, with the goal of improving transparency, accuracy, and accountability in traffic violations enforcement.
According to officials, the app will allow traffic authorities to record and securely store video evidence of violations, ensuring that records are verifiable and tamper-proof. The system also enables on-the-spot verification of identity cards, driving licenses, vehicle ownership, fitness certificates, and route permits directly through the application.
In addition to handling traditional traffic violations, the integrated platform supports digital action against encroachments and environmental breaches, further expanding its role in law enforcement. Officials say detailed challan information will be delivered to motorists via QR codes for ease of access.
Traffic police spokespeople highlighted that the app will also facilitate checks against stolen vehicles and allow access to FIR status and criminal records, helping authorities make faster, more informed decisions in the field.
The introduction of the “One App” system is part of a broader effort to adopt digital solutions in governance and public service delivery across the province, reinforcing public confidence in traffic management and enforcement.
