The Kerala High Court has rejected a petition seeking to halt toll collection operations at the Nattika Fee Plaza, maintaining its previous stance on the matter. The court reiterated its earlier order while addressing another public interest litigation filed against the toll collection at the facility.
Former Member of Parliament T.N. Prathapan had filed the subsequent PIL challenging the toll collection mechanism at the plaza. The court's decision to uphold its earlier position indicates a consistent judicial approach to the issue of toll operations at the facility.
The Nattika Fee Plaza, located in Kerala's Thrissur district, has been a point of contention regarding toll collection practices. The repeated legal challenges suggest ongoing concerns about the toll collection process, though the court has maintained its position against granting temporary relief from these operations.
The High Court's reaffirmation of its order underscores the judicial authority's position on the legality and validity of the toll collection at the plaza. The development leaves the toll collection operations at Nattika Fee Plaza continuing without interruption, pending any further legal proceedings or appeals.
