Kolhapur Toll Booth

A dispute between IRB Infra and the Maharashtra government following the closure of toll booths in Kolhapur would be taken up at a pre-Cabinet meeting on November 17 with a view to arriving at a settlement of compensation claim made by the infrastructure firm.

Taking a step towards fulfilling his party's promise to make Maharashtra toll-free, Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis today announced the closure of 12 toll plazas in the state while exempting private light motor vehicles and buses of the state transport corporation at 53 toll plazas from May 31 midnight.

After suspected Shiv Sena workers vandalised four toll booths in Kolhapur in Maharashtra yesterday to protest against toll collection on nine roads in the city, the party has called for a bandh in the city today.

At least two toll posts were burned down and five others vandalised as the ongoing week-long anti-toll agitation took a violent turn in Kolhapur in Maharashtra today, officials said.
