However, this morning, he has been taken to Rewari to consult another doctor…His leg has been completely crushed as a result of the accident,” said Rajendra Bhati, project head at Skylark. “Our female toll operator refused to let two people in a car pass through because the Tag with which they wanted to pay had expired. She insisted that they pay the toll tax, but instead they got angry. The husband started abusing her, and the wife got out of the vehicle and began manhandling and beating her up,” said Bhati. The footage captured by the CCTV camera inside the booth shows the woman putting her right hand through the open window of the booth and grabbing the toll operator by her collar with her left hand, following which the man with her is also seen hitting the operator on her left shoulder, even as other employees in the plaza rush in and intervene. Officials said that complaints had been submitted regarding both incidents to Gurgaon police. Confirming this, a police officer said, “We are registering cases regarding the incidents. The matter is under investigation.”
