Aaditya demands end to toll collection on Eastern and Western Express Highway

Shiv Sena MLA Aaditya Thackeray has called on the Maharashtra State Road Development Corporation (MSRDC) to stop collecting toll on the Eastern and Western Express Highways, as their maintenance has been handed over to the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC). Thackeray argues that it is unfair to charge toll when the BMC is already responsible for repairs and maintenance. He has written a letter to the BMC chief on the matter. Thackeray also claims that MSRDC is still collecting revenue from advertising hoardings along the highways, which should now go to the BMC.
