## Report on Notification Regarding Fee Collection on National Highway 45 (Old NH12) in Madhya Pradesh
**1. Executive Summary:**
This report analyzes a notification from the Ministry of Road Transport and Highways, Government of India, regarding the levy of fees on mechanical vehicles using a section of National Highway 45 (Old NH12) in Madhya Pradesh. The notification establishes fee rates for different vehicle types based on distance traveled, bypass usage, and structure length, and outlines rules for collection and revision of these fees. Key findings include the establishment of toll plazas at specific locations, fee exemptions and discounts for certain vehicle types and local residents, and provisions for overloaded vehicles. The notification aims to generate revenue for the National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) to recover the project's capital cost and maintain the highway.
**2. Introduction:**
This report provides an overview and analysis of a notification issued by the Ministry of Road Transport and Highways concerning the levy of fees on mechanical vehicles using a specific section of National Highway 45 (Old NH12) in the State of Madhya Pradesh. The analysis is based solely on the information contained within the provided policy text.
**3. Policy Overview:**
This is a *new* policy establishing a fee structure for the use of the specified section of National Highway 45 (Old NH12). The core objective, as inferred from the text, is to establish a mechanism for the collection of fees from users of the specified section of the highway to recover the capital cost of the project and potentially fund future maintenance and improvements.
**4. Background and Rationale:**
This new policy likely addresses the need to generate revenue to offset the costs associated with the construction, maintenance, and operation of National Highway 45 (Old NH12) in Madhya Pradesh. By implementing a toll system, the government aims to recoup the initial investment and ensure the long-term sustainability of the highway infrastructure. The text references a previous notification (S.O. 4580E dated 17.12.2020) that entrusted a section of the highway to the Madhya Pradesh government, suggesting a potential need to establish revenue streams following this transfer of responsibility.
**5. Key Provisions:**
The notification outlines the following key provisions:
* **Fee Levy:** The Central Government levies a fee on mechanical vehicles using the specified section of National Highway 45 (Old NH12).
* **Fee Structure:** The fee is determined based on:
* Vehicle type (Car, Jeep, Van, Light Motor Vehicle, etc.) and rates as per Table 1 (based on base year 2007-08).
* Net road section length (66.15 km specified for the primary toll plaza).
* Equivalent structure length (lengths more than 60m), converted using an equalisation factor of 10.
* Bypass usage (1.5 times the base rate).
* **Toll Plaza Locations:** Fees are collected at the designated toll plaza located at Km 210.500 of NH12 near Harshili villages in Raisen district of Madhya Pradesh. There will be additional fees for designated Bypass.
* **Fee Collection Authority:** The National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) is authorized to collect the fee, either through its own officials or through a contractor.
* **Monthly Pass:** A monthly pass is available for non-commercial vehicles registered to individuals residing within 20 kilometers of the toll plaza at a rate of Rs 285 for the year 2021-22.
* **Passes for Multiple Journeys:** Discounted passes are available for multiple journeys: a one-and-a-half-times fee for two one-way journeys valid for 24 hours, and two-thirds of the fee for fifty single journeys valid for one month.
* **Commercial Vehicle Exemption:** Commercial vehicles (excluding those under National permit) registered in the district where the toll plaza is located receive a 50% discount if no service road or alternative road is available.
* **Overloaded Vehicles:** Overloaded vehicles are subject to additional fees as per existing rules.
* **Fee Rate Display:** The fee rates must be displayed for user information.
* **Annual Revision:** The actual fee amount and discounts are calculated by NHAI based on completed section length and revised annually according to specified rules.
**6. Target Audience and Stakeholders:**
The target audience and stakeholders include:
* Owners and operators of mechanical vehicles using the specified section of National Highway 45 (Old NH12).
* Residents living within 20 kilometers of the toll plaza.
* Commercial vehicle operators registered in the district where the toll plaza is located.
* The National Highways Authority of India (NHAI).
* Potential contractors involved in toll collection.
**7. Implementation Aspects (Inferred):**
* **Responsible Agency:** The National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) is responsible for implementing and enforcing the fee collection policy.
* **Procedures:** NHAI will calculate fees, collect revenue, and revise fee structures annually. The notification refers to existing "rules" (National Highways Fee Determination of Rates and Collection Rules, 2008), implying that existing regulatory frameworks will guide the implementation process.
* **Timelines:** The notification specifies a monthly pass rate for the year 2021-22, suggesting an immediate implementation timeframe.
**8. Expected Outcomes / Impact of Changes:**
The likely intended outcomes of this policy include:
* **Revenue Generation:** Recovery of the capital cost of the project (estimated at Rupees 949.54 crore) through user fees.
* **Highway Maintenance:** Funding for ongoing maintenance and potential future improvements to the highway infrastructure.
* **Cost Recovery:** Shifting a portion of the financial burden of highway infrastructure from the general tax payer to the direct users of the highway.
* **Economic Impact:** Depending on fee rates, it could result in raised costs for transportation of goods impacting industries using this route.
**9. Conclusion:**
The notification establishes a tolling system on a section of National Highway 45 (Old NH12) in Madhya Pradesh. This policy establishes the framework for user fees and is a necessary element for the sustainable funding of highway infrastructure, and the overall financial management of the project. The success of this policy hinges on transparent implementation, efficient revenue collection, and effective communication with the public.
