What Is the E-Challan Review Facility?
The e-challan review facility is an online service provided through the Punjab Safe Cities Authority (PSCA) portal. It is designed for motorists who believe a traffic challan has been issued against them in error — whether due to misidentification, a system fault, or any other discrepancy.
Lahore Traffic Police has shared the procedure publicly to ensure motorists are aware that an incorrect challan can be formally contested without requiring a physical visit to any traffic police office. The entire process is handled digitally, and the outcome is communicated to the applicant by the relevant authorities after review.
Step-by-Step: How to Review a Wrong E-Challan
| Step | Action | What to Do |
| 1 | Visit the Portal | Open echallan.psca.gop.pk in your browser. This is the official PSCA e-challan portal — the only platform through which the review facility is available. |
| 2 | Enter Your Details | Provide the required information to search for your e-challan. Enter all details accurately to ensure the correct challan is retrieved. |
| 3 | Locate the E-Challan | From the search results, identify the challan you believe was issued incorrectly. Review the available challan information before proceeding. |
| 4 | Click “Review” | Select the Review button on the relevant challan listing. This initiates the formal review request process. |
| 5 | Complete the Form | Follow the on-screen instructions, provide the information requested, and submit your review request through the portal. |
| 6 | Await the Outcome | Once submitted, authorities will review the challan and notify the applicant of the decision through the portal or via the contact details provided. |
| 🔒 Use the Official Portal Only
The PSCA portal at echallan.psca.gop.pk is the only official channel for submitting an e-challan review request. Motorists should not use third-party websites or agents claiming to offer this service. |
Before You Submit — What to Check
Before clicking the Review button, motorists should confirm that the challan details displayed on the portal — including the vehicle registration number, date, time, and violation type — do not match the actual circumstances. A review request should be based on a genuine discrepancy, as the authorities will examine the challan record during the process.
Ensure that all information entered during the search is accurate. An incorrectly entered registration number or CNIC could result in the wrong challan being retrieved, which would delay or invalidate the review request.
| ✓ | Check Before Submitting |
| ✓ | Vehicle registration number on the challan matches your vehicle. |
| ✓ | Date and time of the alleged violation are reviewed carefully. |
| ✓ | Violation type listed corresponds to what is shown on the challan. |
| ✓ | All personal details entered in the portal search are accurate. |
| ✓ | The challan selected is the correct one — not another vehicle’s record. |
