AAP MP Raghav Chadha has strongly criticized toll plazas in India. He highlighted that commuters face heavy taxes, bad roads, and long waits despite paying multiple charges. Chadha described this situation as ‘legalised loot’. He urged the government to review toll norms and suggested free passage if waits exceed five minutes. NEW DELHI: AAP Rajya Sabha MP Raghav Chadha on Monday sharply criticised the functioning of toll plazas, arguing that commuters face excessive taxation, poor road conditions and long queues despite paying multiple charges. Raising the issue in the Upper House, he said the situation amounted to “legalised loot” and urged the government to revisit tolling norms.Chadha said “toll is taking a big toll on people of India,” pointing to what he described as persistent congestion, mismanagement and profiteering at toll points. Highlighting the tax burden on vehicle owners, he noted that citizens already pay GST, road tax and infrastructure cess while buying cars, and infrastructure-related levies on fuel. ‘Where Were Your Ancestors?’ Gogoi Mocks BJP, Blasts Modi’s Nehru Remark During Vande Mataram Debate “And then when we drive on roads even the toll tax is charged from us, which is increasingly becoming unbearable for the citizens,” he said. He also criticised the quality of highways, saying commuters expect proper drainage, lighting, lane markings and safety features after paying hefty charges, but “none of it is available” and maintenance remains “negligible.” Citing recent judicial observations, he referred to the Kerala high court’s view that NHAI cannot collect toll on incomplete or poorly maintained stretches and the Jammu & Kashmir high court’s decision granting 80% relief at two toll plazas over bad road conditions.On delays at toll booths, Chadha questioned the utility of paying numerous taxes when motorists still spend “30–40 mins in the queue waiting.” He said the cost of such congestion – fuel wastage, lost productivity and missed commitments – imposes an “invisible” burden on the economy.He further alleged that several toll plazas continue to operate for decades even after recovering project costs, calling it “legalised loot which should be stopped.”Chadha demanded that the government introduce a rule ensuring free passage for any commuter made to wait beyond a set threshold. “My demand is we should make a rule, that if someone is made to wait for more than 5 mins at a toll plaza their charges should be made free,” he said.About the AuthorTOI News DeskThe TOI News Desk comprises a dedicated and tireless team of journalists who operate around the clock to deliver the most current and comprehensive news and updates to the readers of The Times of India worldwide.

NEW DELHI: The Supreme Court Friday said it would not direct the clubbing of FIRs against a person accused of duping thousands of investors across states while rejecting a plea by Sameer Agrawal of Saga group who fled to Dubai after allegedly misappropriating Rs 10,000 crore maturity amounts of depositors in a cooperative society.Appearing for the absconding accused, senior advocate R Basant told a bench of CJI Surya Kant and Justice Joymlaya Bagchi the court had in the past clubbed FIRs if these were premised on the same fundamental allegations to avoid the accused going from state to state to attend trial.CJI Kant said when a person cheats thousands of investors, then each incident becomes the subject matter of an independent FIR. There are 33 FIRs against Agrawal in UP, Uttarakhand, Madhya Pradesh and Haryana for failing to pay the maturity amounts to depositors.”Clubbing of FIRs is a bonanza for the accused. Those who are duped would have to travel long distances to depose before the court while the accused enjoys sitting in one place. The probe agencies should net this person and bring him to India to face trial,” it said. “If a group of people who are duped come together for the clubbing of the FIRs, the court will consider. Our approach must be victim-centric.” It said if the accused deposits Rs 10,000 crore for refund, the court would consider his plea.
