Toll-Free?

Chief Minister of Punjab Bhagwant Mann has taken such a bold step which is heard all over the country and the general public is considering it a big victory. They have permanently closed the state's 19 toll plazas, reducing the burden of millions of pockets of common citizens. The Chief Minister's argument is very straightforward and effective that why should he pay repeated toll to walk on the same road when a person pays a heavy-paid 'road tax' while buying a vehicle? The decision is a major injury against private companies who have been filling their vault with the hard earned public for years. This move is not only saving people's money but also reduced the problem of traffic jams on the roads and the journey has become pleasant. People from other states are now demanding the same from their Chief Ministers to stop this 'double recovery' in the name of toll tax. This decision of Bhagwant Mann proves that if the intentions of the government are clear, he can give real and great relief to the public. This is a great example of good governance and accountability towards the common man.
