What happens if a passenger refuses to pay the fine?

Officials stated that the revised rules are meant to stop ticketless travel and protect female passengers. If a passenger does not pay the fine on the spot, they will be produced in court. In such cases, the person may face both a monetary penalty and imprisonment.
