        Hi, I got caught at a checkpoint in Gurgaon for drunk driving on 25 Feb, the challan was generated and it says DL is digitally impounded and is recommended for suspension.
        I am confused if I can drive right now or not, the status in mParivahan app shows active and I haven’t received any SMS or communication regarding suspension.

        The details have not been updated on Vcourts website also, I am waiting for the next steps. Some places it says that it might take 6 months to get the challan cleared, is it true? I am a little worried.

        Looking for guidance from this community.

          “I am confused if I can drive right now or not”: For the sake of humanity and for the value of other precious human life, don’t. Your might not be valuable, but others’ are, as I’m sure you won’t stop.

              I know I made a big mistake, I’ll never do it again.
