Clarification of Highway Toll Tax

Dear Brigadier,

Please refer your e-mail to the chairman NHAI dated 03 Jan 08. The letter enclosed by you does not exist and is being circulated to misguide ex- servicemen as the toll collection work is being assigned only to DGR sponsored agencies of ESM(O) and employing 90% ex- servicemen.
Based on provisions of Indian Toll (Army & Air Force) Act 1901, exemption is available only to serving Defence Personnel and these provisions are being implemented. Recipients of Gallantry Award as per Gazette notification no GSR 84(E) dt 27 Oct 2003 are covered in exempted category.
No exemption is available to ex-servicemen unless they are recipients of listed gallantry awards.
Thanking you
Yours faithfully

Gp Capt Vinay Kaushal VSM
General Manager (CO)

The above letter was received by Brig CS Kamboj, VSM (Retd) which is reproduced for information of all ESM.
