Do something instead of appealing, SC to NHAI over toll suspension
August 15, 2025
|The New Indian Express Kottayam
REFUSING to interfere with the Kerala High Court's order suspending collection of user fee at Paliyekkara toll plaza in Thrissur, the Supreme Court on Thursday suggested that the National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) should "do something" instead of filing appeals and wasting time.
The Kerala HC had, on August 6, ordered a four-week suspension of toll collection, observing that motorists could not be charged for use of a stretch of highway that is badly maintained and is beset by severe traffic congestion. The NHAI moved the apex court challenging the HC order, and seeking to quash it. However, the SC refused to entertain the appeal.
