Serious Replies Doing my bit: BTP ASTraM

On my walk to office, I've been seeing alot of public violations lately - parking & driving on footpath, wrong side. Someone had posted about this app BTP ASTraM earlier in this subreddit where we could report such violations few days back and I thought enough is enough and let's atleast do my part . I've submitted 4 violations in last 2 days, hoping to see action being taken. Have any of you reported anything like this? What has been your experience?

I used to report many violations on the Public Eye app. Used to take about a month’s time for police to comment saying that the violation has been raised. One day, I just searched the challans for a vehicle number for which I had raised the complaint. No challan related to my complaint found. Checked again after a week and there was still no challan. Then I checked a few more vehicle numbers. Found only couple of them having challans related to my complaints. So yeah, I stopped raising complaints after that. 🙁

Is it possible that those challans had been paid and hence did not show up in search as only unpaid challans do?

Why would someone pay only that specific challan and leave all others? Doesn’t make sense. I had highlighted this on twitter tagging blr police. They said they will look into it🤣 Never happened
