Unless they have initiated any proceeding against you in a court of law, you have the liberty to not to mention it. You need not specifically mention it anywhere. This would not be in the nature of any offence which may be treated to have a repercussion on your character.

The courts have repeatedly held that this kind of fines and penalties including traffic challans etc do not reflect on the character of a person and do not amount to moral turpitude.
As this was not a serious matter you may omit to mention in the character verification form .
