Agreement Between Tamil Nadu Road Development Company Limited and Government of Tamil Nadu, Levy of Tolls for Improvement and Maintenance of East Coast Road
The Government of Tamil Nadu, Highways and Minor Ports Department, issued G. O. Ms. No. 132, Highways and Minor Ports (HV2), dated 20th July 2012, to amend three earlier Highways Department toll notifications concerning the East Coast Road. Each amendment replaces 31st July 2012 with 31st January 2013 wherever that date appears, without stating any new toll rate.
What the notification does
The Government of Tamil Nadu, Highways and Minor Ports Department, issued G. O. Ms. No. 132, Highways and Minor Ports (HV2), dated 20th July 2012, under the Indian Tolls Act, 1851. The Gazette contains three notifications amending earlier Highways Department notifications connected with the levy of tolls for the improvement and maintenance of the East Coast Road.
The only stated change is the substitution of one date. Wherever 31st July 2012 appears in the affected notifications, it must be read as 31st January 2013.
Earlier notifications amended
G. O. Ms. No. 132 amends three Highways Department notifications that had already been subsequently amended:
- Notification I amends Highways Department Notification No. II(2)HW/241(c-1)/2002, dated 21st March 2002.
- Notification II amends Highways Department Notification No. II(2)HW/241(c-2)/2002, dated 21st March 2002.
- Notification III amends a Highways Department notification dated 16th July 2002 and identified in the Gazette as No. II(2)HW/590(c-2/2002.
The amendments were made by the Governor of Tamil Nadu using powers under the Indian Tolls Act, 1851.
Who may be affected
The East Coast Road toll amendments are relevant to Tamil Nadu Road Development Company Limited, the Government of Tamil Nadu and persons or organisations covered by the amended toll notifications. Anyone checking the applicable period in the earlier notifications should use 31st January 2013 instead of 31st July 2012.
Relevance to land and property
G. O. Ms. No. 132 concerns toll notifications for improvement and maintenance of the East Coast Road. It does not set out any change to land ownership, title, registration, land use or acquisition. Property buyers and owners would therefore use it only if the East Coast Road toll arrangements are relevant to their enquiry.
