Sindh Forms Cross-Party E‑Challan Review, Orders Probe Into Sujawal Incident

A December 15 meeting will examine transparency issues as the ticketing rollout expands.

Overview

  • Sindh Home Minister Zia-ul-Hasan Lanjar ordered a thorough investigation into the Sujawal case involving an elderly citizen and pledged strict, impartial action under the law.
  • Lanjar announced a committee chaired by himself with MQM-P members Ali Khurshidi, Taha Ahmed, Iftikhar Alam and Muhammad Shabbir Qureshi, and PPP members Asif Khan, Sadia Javed and Farooq Awan.
  • The home secretary was directed to issue the notification on Friday, formalizing the body to review e‑challan complaints and system practices.
  • The first meeting on December 15 will assess public grievances, transparency, traffic regulation and the determination of fines, with legal amendments on fines considered if needed.
  • Officials stressed that e‑challans aim to promote road safety rather than raise revenue, citing a recent child fatality as urgency for stronger enforcement and a phased rollout to Hyderabad and other districts.
