In Jharkhand, the government e-challan portal has been non-functional for six months, forcing citizens to use third-party apps that charge excessive fees. For example, a 150-rupee fine required 349.42 rupees via a third-party app due to settlement fees and GST. This issue affects many, with fines doubling due to extra charges. Data privacy concerns arise as personal data is accessed by private portals, increasing risks of fraud.
