The Rajasthan Motor Transport Vehicles Toll Act, 1991
The Rajasthan Motor Transport Vehicles Toll Act, 1991, regulates the entry of commercial transport vehicles, such as buses and goods trucks, entering Rajasthan from other Indian states. It requires vehicle operators holding permits from outside the state to pay a specified entry toll at designated border barriers. This law matters because it empowers state authorities to establish checkpoints, stop and seize non-compliant vehicles, and impose financial penalties for unpaid tolls. By establishing this legal framework, the act allows Rajasthan to collect revenue from interstate commercial traffic while regulating the flow of transport vehicles crossing its state borders.
