| Address: Plaza Name - Saliwada @km13.44 Jabalpur- Mandla- Chilpi |
I was travelling to narmada greens resort in Chilpi on 14th Feb 2021, from Jabalpur, MP. Through the toll plaza- Saliwada @km13.440. I got charged Rs. 60/- for not having Fastag on that day, On return on the same date i.e. 14th feb 2021, they charged me Rs. 60/- as well.
That the deadline for the Fastag was 15th feb 2021 and not 14th feb 2021, as per the Notification of The Union Ministry of Road Transport and Highways.
That the toll plaza namely, Saliwada has wrongfully charging people with cash 60/- and not 30/-.
That i argued the same but they were not listening.
Instance: There was a Toll Plaza in between Bhubaneswar and Khorda.. Nearby residents never paid Toll Tax. Even, other people whose destination is that village, never had to pay Toll Tax.
But key point is that, if you say you destination is that nearby village, the Toll Plaza Manager will make a call to the Sarpanch. If he certifies his visit, then it is Toll Free.
Simillarly, All Toll Plazas should somehow ensure the destination and charge accordingly.
