Toll Charges to be Imposed for New Brahmaputra Bridge(s): CM Sarma

Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma declared that toll charges would be enforced for utilizing the forthcoming Brahmaputra River bridges. These toll fees are intended to bolster the state's finances, obliging individuals to pay for access to the new bridges connecting Sadiya and Dhubri.

This announcement came during CM Sarma's participation in a transport department event on Thursday. He stressed the importance of contributing to the government's funds through toll payments to access these newly constructed Brahmaputra River bridges. 

Otherwise, commuters will have to rely on boats for their crossings.

The decision to implement toll charges for bridge usage has raised significant concerns among the public.
