Maharashtra Traffic Police — Incorrect Challan MH[protected]

I have been charged challan MH[protected] for overspeeding for Rs 2000. I have paid despite not committing the above offence as there is no way for me to prove otherwise. If I don’t pay, you may consider this complaint as avoidance trick.

Having paid, I would like to lodge the complaint as below:
I was stopped by traffic police near a diversion. There is no way for me to overspeed at that point. After finding that all my paperwork was in order, the police cop said that I had a suitcase in my rear seat and that’s an offence under some penal code that attracts 7000 Rs fine. I told the cop that I was not aware of such law. If it was informational, I can move the luggage but the charge seems over the top. He let me go after few mins of discussion but he had taken a photo during the conversation. I didn’t suspect any follow-thru charges as he didn’t say that that he is going to create a challan. Then I found this challan about overspeeding. There was no discussion about overspeeding at all thru the entire 5 minutes. This is a total harassment of a law abiding citizen.

I would like to hear an update back from the dept.
