Forty-nine toll plazas in Punjab were made toll-free for three hours on Monday by the Quami Insaaf Morcha. The protest aimed to press demands for the release of Sikh prisoners who have completed their sentences but remain incarcerated. Activists prevented toll collection, causing financial losses, and were joined by labor and farmer unions. The group stated this action is to highlight the denial of basic rights to these prisoners.
