Traffic Sentinel App: Report traffic rule breakers on this mobile app! Police will give 50,000 rupees

Delhi Lieutenant Governor VK Saxena has directed the Delhi Traffic Police to relaunch the existing Traffic Sentinel mobile app under the new name “Traffic Prahari”. The Lieutenant Governor has given this direction to increase public participation in traffic management. This advanced mobile app, which will be launched from September 1, serves as a platform for citizens to report traffic and parking violations.

On this app, citizens will be able to report against those violating traffic rules and in return, there is a provision to give them a reward of up to Rs 50,000. This app will help in properly controlling the traffic within the city.

Traffic Sentinel Scheme (TSS):

Traffic Sentinel Scheme (TSS) allows common citizens to act as a sentinel for Delhi Traffic Police by reporting traffic violators. This app has been re-launched and now the rewards will be given on a monthly basis instead of annually as before. That is, now every month the top 4 best performing reporters will be rewarded.

₹50,000 reward per month:

The top 4 best performers every month will receive prizes of Rs 50,000, Rs 25,000, Rs 15,000 and Rs 10,000 respectively, with the first prize being distributed in early October based on the September report.

LG Saxena emphasized that the Traffic Sentinel Scheme (TSS) will give aware citizens an opportunity to cooperate with the Delhi Traffic Police. This will help in smooth running of urban traffic and prevention of rule violations. It provides a source of income for responsible citizens along with cooperating in governance.
