In a major relief, the Rajasthan government has granted toll tax waiver on Rajasthan vehicles plying on state highways. Chief Minister Vasundhara Raje made this announcement while replying to a question in the assembly here. "With state highways becoming toll-free, it will come as a big respite for people in state," the Chief Minister added.
