However, good news for people often traveling from one place to another is that you overcome this issue National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) is coming up with a new plan which will allow no longer wastage of time on waiting in a long queue.
Radio frequency identification is the technology behind this new concept being implemented. Under this, a new 'Onboard Unit ' will be installed in four or more wheeler vehicles. So whenever this vehicle crossed one city and enters another this onboard unit will identify it and the money will get deducted from the commuter’s bank account directly.
