My car no. MH 12 PN 4497 was near cafe Peter Viman Nagar. There was no no-parking board, so the traffic police called me and said your vehicle is in no parking, you will have to pay approx 3000 as it's in no parking. I tried to reason with the policeman that there is no sign showing No parking.
The policeman ignored that, also I mentioned that the charges for no parking are not that much, so he started arguing don't teach me. Initially he was asking for approx RS 3000, when I said, I will pay challan using my card then he changed the amount & charged RS 1071.12. Traffic police said the vehicle had RS 200 earlier due so I paid 1271.12 in total. My vehicle was not towed, still towing charges of 484+ 87.12 GST were charged. After paying challan, the receipt was not shared and I also haven't received any message from the RTO.
As traffic police changed the amount & not shared receipt, I found that suspicious and took a photo of the towing vehicle then traffic police started arguing why you are taking vehicle number/vehicle pic.
In anger, he forcefully towed my vehicle even after paying challan.
Traffic officer Name : Vikas Gyandev Dhawde
Towing Vehicle Number : MH-03 MF 8502
After this incident I went to Viman Nagar Police Chawki to file a complaint against him. At that time I got a call from traffic police, he asked me where are you, I told him I am in Viman Nagar Police Chawki then he came & handed me my car over there.
I would request you to take strong action against the concerned officer for unethical action and misuse of power.
I have attached images of the location from where it was picked and handed over. I paid challan at 3:30 PM and after 2 hrs they handed over my car to me near Viman Nagar Police Chowki. Misusing his power officer has towed my car unnecessary here and there even after paying challan. I have been wrongly charged; I request the authorities to return the penalty deducted and take strong action against the concerned officer.
Thanks & Regards,
Jayesh
