The National Highways Authority of India fined the operator of the Bijwasan toll plaza ₹15 lakh and barred it from taking part in NHAI tenders for one month. The road transport ministry announced the action against Riddhi Siddhi Associates through the Press Information Bureau on November 11. The ban covers tenders already underway as well as new tenders.
NHAI said the decision followed misconduct by toll staff towards road users at the plaza on NH-248BB on November 5. It directed the contractor to hand the plaza over to a new operator on November 14.
The authority also issued a separate notice asking why the firm and its owners or directors should not be barred from future NHAI tenders for a year. That longer ban is at the proposal stage.
