Shillong, Dec 13: The National Highways Authority of India (NHAI), PIU Shillong has issued corrected toll revenue figures following an RTI application.
A clarification was issued on December 8 in response to the RTI filed by Centre for Efficient Governance (CEG) Executive Director Rakesh Hazarika who had raised concerns over transparency in highway toll accounting.
Earlier, the CEG has raised concerns over a significant discrepancy in two separate RTI replies stating it was statistically improbable.
The NHAI had provided identical revenue collection for the financial year April 2023–March 2024 and the calendar year January–December 2024 for all four toll plazas in Pahammawlein, Diengpasoh, Pasyih, and Lumshnong, which prompted the CEG to seek a re-verification of the data.
