The Supreme Court upheld the scrapping of the toll on the DND flyway linking Noida to Delhi. The toll had been challenged by commuters, and the Court ruled that the toll was unlawful and should be removed. The ruling comes as a major relief to commuters who had been paying tolls despite the expiry of the contract period. The decision reinforces the Court's stance on consumer rights and the proper enforcement of toll agreements, ensuring that citizens are not unduly burdened by unjustified toll charges. The ruling has set an important precedent for similar toll disputes in India.
