Can’t collect toll if road in bad shape, says J&K HC; cuts fee at 2 NH-44 plazas

Wait 5 sec.

The J&K and Ladakh high court has ruled that NHAI or its concessionaire cannot collect toll tax from commuters if a highway is in bad shape due to construction activities. The court ordered NHAI to collect only 20% toll at Lakhanpur and Bann toll plazas and directed the removal of any toll plazas within 60 km of NH-44 within two months.
