Rto India — improper penalty for number plate at vashi traffic

Address:Mumbai City, Maharashtra

I ride a honda cbr bought in 2011. It has a number mh xx q xx. The dealer gave a high security number plate with the above number. No changes whatsoever has been made to the bike till date.

On 11th april 2018, i was stopped at the vashi creek toll naka by the traffic constable and randomly fined for having 2 digits in the number. He said that i was supposed to have 4 digits. So he fined me rs.200/-

1. No information has been shared with the general public, no visible hoardings at traffic check points, nothing ever was done for the awareness of this rule (If at all a rule).
2. On comitting to getting the same changed in next 48 hours, he did not want to consider, he was hellbent on penalising. Period.
3. The fine /penalty is under a wrong heading! The section sis 236 (1)/177 mva which is - number plate not visible".in my case the number plate is clearly visible, no fancy fonts, stock from the dealer 7 years ago. Its a high security number plate too.
4. On asking why he put a wrong section - the reply was - whatever is there i have put. You go and do whatever you want. Wow - what arrogance.
5. He did not give his name or identity upon repeatedly asking for the same.

How do i redress this grievance? Its not the fine, its the wrong doing and arrogance that hurts. Just because he is unformed, he cannot bully us. Is that what the police is all about - bullying citizens?
