Public Security Minister Ananda Wijepala announced that the on-site fine payment system through the GovPAY application will be launched starting today, focusing on the Western Province.
Participating in a press conference held in Colombo today, the Minister said that the necessary technical tools for this purpose will be distributed to police stations today.
The system for paying instant fines for traffic violations online through the GovPAY application was introduced recently under the Clean Sri Lanka project, and accordingly its pilot project was implemented from Kurunegala to Anuradhapura.
Accordingly, after paying the fine for traffic violations through this system and confirming the text message received on the phone with the traffic officers, the driver’s license will be released at that time.
The process is as follows.
