Chennai Traffic Police — Automated E-Challan Fines by Traffic Police

I received a call from the Traffic Police Department asking me to pay a fine of 1200 for 12 seeming violations of my bike riding. When asked about this they responded that these are violations are captured by their automated cameras for signal violations. I travel everyday by the same route to drop my School going kids in the bumpy road taking a U-turn for school diversion route. And I am not sure what they call as violation.

My Questions :
(1) What guarantee is their that the Cameras are capturing the violations appropriately.
(2) Why should the Traffic Police Department wait for 12 violations thus bleeding the citizens monitorily, when they could have called me and informed me on my first violations? Why should we people suffer for their in efficiency?
(3) At many signals the Traffic light indicators doesn't work properly. In R.A Puran I saw a signal counting forward instead of Backward. and whom should the people charge penalty with for all these deficiency of services?
(4) These automated camera e-challan fining of citizens should be stopped, as I suspect this is a devious action by the Police Department which is more like a day light robbery.
