Central Government to Recover Losses from Punjab Due to Protest Disruptions
BY Connect Newsroom, Apr 11, 2025 5:15 PM - REPORT AN ERROR
According to reports, the Union Ministry of Road Transport and Highways has written a letter to Punjab’s Chief Secretary A. P. Sinha.
The Centre is preparing to recover compensation from the Punjab state government for the losses incurred due to farmers repeatedly closing toll plazas across the state. According to reports, the Union Ministry of Road Transport and Highways has written a letter to Punjab’s Chief Secretary A. P. Sinha, stating that the central government has faced a loss of approximately Rs 1,638 crore between October 2020 and November 2024.
The central government argues that these disruptions in toll operations not only impede infrastructure development but also force the government to compensate toll agencies for their losses, putting additional pressure on the government exchequer.
