What are the implications of being booked for drunk driving?


25-Oct-2023 (In Motor Accident Law)
Hi, I was booked for drunk driving yesterday night. I paid Rs.2000 for the challan and deposited the rc book and my license at the police station. I'm scheduled to appear in court tomorrow. I'm just scared whether this might lead to imprisonment,although it is a first time offence. Also, I'm planning on going to the US next year for my further studies. Would this impact my plans?
