All India Youth Federation (AIYF) activists on Wednesday staged a protest at the Panniyankara toll plaza on the Palakkad-Thrissur national highway against toll collection that began on the day.
The protesters alleged that the toll collection was put in place without completion of the works. Construction of service roads and drainage systems have not been completed, while in certain places, the work has not even started. Foot overbridges and subways too remain unconstructed, they said.
The protesters also demanded issuance of free passes for those residing close to the toll plaza.
