The current system of toll collection in India will come to an end within a year, replaced by an electronic system, Union Minister Nitin Gadkari said on Thursday. The new system will ensure a seamless experience for motorists on highways. The new system has been rolled out in 10 places and will be extended across the country within a year, the Union minister of road transport and highways said in the Lok Sabha during Question Hour, PTI reported.

"This toll system will end. There will be no one to stop you in the name of toll. Within a year, an electronic toll collection will be implemented across the country," he said. Gadkari also informed the House that currently, 4,500 highway projects worth Rs 10 lakh crore are ongoing across the country.
