A toll plaza set up on the Kiratpur Sahib-Nangal-Una road near Nakkian village in November 2007 was shut down today.
Speaking at the site, Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann said it was the eighth toll plaza being shut down by his government in a year.
An amount of over Rs 10 lakh per day was being collected at the toll plaza.
Mann alleged the Congress and Akalis had “connived” with toll plaza agencies to extend benefits to them by blatantly ignoring their misdeeds. “No action was taken against the concessionaire even as terms and conditions of the contract were violated repeatedly.
