The Indian government is bringing huge reforms the way the Highways function. As part of the same, a new Toll Pass will be introduced from Independence Day. Meanwhile, there have been speculations that the two-wheelers might be paying toll charges from next month.
In view of the same, the Union Minister of Road Transport & Highways issued a clarification that no such thing is in discussion.
A section of the media reported today that the toll charges will be levied on two-wheelers, but the government is quick to refute the same.
“Some media houses are spreading misleading news about imposing toll tax on two-wheeler vehicles. No such decision has been proposed. The exemption on toll for two-wheeler vehicles will continue fully. Spreading misleading news without verifying the truth to create a sensation is not a sign of healthy journalism. I condemn this.” wrote Nitin Gadkari on X.
The National Highway Authorities of India also tweeted, “Some sections of the media have reported that the Government of India plans to levy user fees on two-wheelers. #NHAI would like to clarify that no such proposal is under consideration. There are no plans to introduce toll charges for two-wheelers.”
