Maharashtra Assembly Speaker Rahul Narwekar on Wednesday during the Winter Assembly Session said that the collection of toll from electric vehicles on the Mumbai-Pune and Samruddhi motorways was "illegal". Narwekar further asked the government to implement the waiver system within eight days.

Responding to questions on the toll waiver for electric vehicles on the Mumbai-Pune Motorway, Nagpur-Mumbai Samruddhi Motorway and Atal Setu in Mumbai, Minister Dada Bhuse admitted that toll had been deducted from some EV users despite the waiver, as reported by news agency PTI.
