“The owner, driver pasted with sticker notice on his/her vehicle should contact the office of SSP Traffic City Srinagar with relevant documents and remit the prescribed fine against proper Government Receipt (GR). In case the violator fails to respond to the notice within 15 days, his/her challan would be submitted to the Court of Law for prosecution.
