According to police officials, the man had committed 48 violations for jumping red lights and one for improperly crossing a zebra line.
In addition to the licence revocation, the court imposed a fine of ₹500 per violation, totaling ₹24,500.
Initially, the court had intended to impose a ₹200 fine per challan along with community service. However, due to the offender’s age, the court waived the community service requirement and increased the fine per challan to ₹500.
