This law abolishes taxes levied on non-motorised vehicles, such as bicycles and rickshaws, throughout the Union territory of Puducherry. It repeals older laws that previously imposed these charges and transfers any ongoing legal cases related to them to revenue officials. The legislation aims to remove financial burdens on non-motorised transport users and streamline tax administration. It also provides legal protection to government officials acting in good faith to implement these changes, ensuring they cannot be sued for their actions taken under this Act.
