Toll booths will be set ablaze if MNS workers are stopped from ensuring small vehicles are exempted from paying taxes: Raj Thackeray

Taking up the people’s issue of toll tax in Maharashtra in the run-up to the 2024 Lok Sabha and Vidhan Sabha polls, MNS President Raj Thackeray on Monday said his party workers would set ablaze toll booths if the government does not ensure that small vehicles are exempted from paying toll taxes.

Raj described the toll booths as a major “scam” and said that it has become a sort of means of livelihood for politicians in Maharashtra.

Thackeray’s comes days before he meets CM Eknath Shinde on the same issue.

“I have sought an appointment with the CM in the next couple of days. Will see what comes out of that meeting.
