Rise in Unidentified Vehicles at Barrier-less Toll Plazas Prompts Government Action
On the Delhi-Jaipur section of NH-48 and other toll plazas, a rising number of vehicles are classified as "unidentified" under the Multi-Lane Free Flow (MLFF) barrier-less toll system, leading to unpaid tolls. The Ministry of Road Transport and Highways is coordinating with agencies to identify these vehicles, which may involve illegal activities or GST evasion. Measures under consideration include penalties and FIR registration. The issue causes revenue losses for NHAI and banks, with a final decision expected within a month.
