Summary:
The organizations have been vehemently opposing the toll plaza, calling it 'an illegal syndicate'. "Toll collection has been stopped for next 24 hours from 4 pm on Sunday. It will take at least 24 hours for us to take a decision on the toll gate's operation in future. The KMSS opposes opening the toll gate before completion of four-laning of the national highway. Till the next 24 hours, there will be no toll collection at the Raha toll plaza under NHAI," said a spokesperson of the NHAI.Though the protest was withdrawn following the assurance made by NHAI in presence of district administration officials, KMSS adviser Akhil Gogoi said the toll gate will not be allowed to be opened even after 24 hours..
