Thousands of vehicles ferrying Congress supporters to the party\u2019s rally at Delhi\u2019s Ramlila Maidan on Sunday were allowed free passage at the toll plaza of the Delhi-Gurgaon Expressway. Vehicles, including trucks and other commercial vans, which were used to ferry supporters from Gurgaon, Rewari, Mewat and other parts of Southern Haryana passed through the expressway.<\/p>\n
But, the toll operators did not stop any vehicle bearing flags and posters of the Congress party. The boom barriers at both the toll plazas (Delhi-border Sirhaul and Kherki Daula) were lifted for all rally-bound vehicles.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
Just this free passage meant loss of lacs for the toll operator firm \u2013 Delhi Gurgaon Super Connectivity Limited (DGSCL).<\/p>\n
Sources in the DGSCL confirmed the loss of lakhs of rupees due to free passage given to rally-bound vehicles. The Gurgaon police, however, denied of any \u2018special\u2019 instructions being issued to the toll operator for allowing free passage to rally-bound vehicles.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
Not just the toll tax but even the South Delhi Municipal Corporation waived off the Entry Tax as well to the Congress Supporters!<\/p>\n
It is obvious that if this wasn\u2019t a trend already, it will be now.\u00a0 Other parties \u2013 where the functionaries run on testosterone as opposed to brains will try their best to out do the Congress party.<\/p>\n
This makes one think if the Indian Political system itself is stacked against the long term infrastructure businesses, which are so much required by the country?<\/p>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
