In Urdu, the word challan has various meanings. It can refer to things like a fee voucher for a course, but in this context, it means a fine imposed by the government. Simply put, it’s a document that states a payment obligation which must be settled by a specific due date to avoid penalties.
I’m always working to make my blogs easier to understand for English readers by translating them, but some Urdu terms don’t have straightforward English equivalents. If a term is unclear, like when you had questions about ingredients in my chicken tikka recipe, I’m happy to explain and update the blog with a better translation. Sometimes, what’s a common word in one language may be unfamiliar to readers in another.
