Section 186 in The Indian Penal Code

186. Obstructing public servant in discharge of public functions.—Whoever voluntarily obstructs any public servant in the discharge of his public functions, shall be punished with imprisonment of either description for a term which may extend to three months, or with fine which may extend to five hundred rupees, or with both.

1) you should first go and apologies for the issue happened and remove section 186. He had booked for you because you were not co-operating him to perform his duty.

Sir, there is no such provision under Indian law which specifies that challan can be later cancelled if you produce the document at later stage it is duty of the driver to carry orginal document in accordance to section 130 and 130 of Motor vehicle act if he fails there can be challan, which shall not be cancelled on later production of documents.

you are misguided by some Facebook or social media posts which circulates such information. The challan fine is must for not carrying original documents you can get vehicle released or the document if any impounded by showing documents later. this is the misunderstanding of the provision many people have.

Further he cannot be booked under 186 ipc instead you can if you donot allow him to perform his duty 186 ipc is obstructing public servant in discharge of public function so he is rightfully doing his duty.

Whoever voluntarily obstructs any public servant in the discharge of his public functions, shall be punished with imprisonment of either description for a term which may extend to three months, or with fine which may extend to five hundred rupees, or with both.

Since you did not have bike papers at time you were caught fine of Rs 200 was imposed upon you

2) you are supposed to carry your RC book , driving licence , insurance papers when you are driving a bike

Dear Sir,

You are supposed to have documents but if you have not possession for any valid reason you should have requested hi. The SI not considered your request as such you may ask him to refer the matter to Court and there you can plead no guilty and get acquitted.

As per motor vehicle act you are bound to carry copy of documents if you do not produce police can impose fine on you. Since you were on wrong side of law there is no way you can take action against police. As per law a person has to approach court of law with clean hand. Read section 130 of motor vehicles act

No offence has been made out against the traffic police as he was simply discharging his duties and also gave a valid receipt for the same.

no action can be taken as you were not carrying the documents when you were stopped for the first time. Please pay the fine.

Have you informed him that you will produce the papers before the court and asked him to send the challan to the court, becasue if you produce the relevant papers before court on being challaned, you need not pay any fine, however you cannot argue with the arrogant cops.

You can make a complaint agaisnt the SI with his superior office about his conduct and the unlawful fine he has made in this regard.

You should remember one thing very clearly that in this issue you will be fighting the battle alone without any support and you will be targeted in other issues, hence better think twice before becoming very serious in this.
