Union Minister for Road Transport and Highways, Nitin Gadkari, on Wednesday clarified that the government is not considering any proposal to levy toll tax on two-wheelers. The statement comes amid reports in some sections of the media suggesting that two-wheelers may be brought under the tolling framework starting July 15.
In a post on social media, Gadkari said, "Some media houses are spreading misleading news about toll collection from two-wheelers. No such proposal is under consideration. The exemption for two-wheelers from toll tax will continue."
He further urged media platforms to avoid spreading unverified information, stating that such reports create unnecessary confusion.
