HYDERABAD: The Sindh High Court has granted stay against collection of the toll tax from the toll plaza on Hyderabad Bypass until the next date of hearing scheduled for November 16.

During the hearing the court was informed by officials of the National Highway Authority (NHA) that 2 toll plazas including 1 on the Hyderabad Bypass and other on the Super Highway were collecting toll tax from the motorists.
However, both were located in the proximity of around 5 kilometres, the officials informed while responding to the bench. While ordering the NHA to submit further details about the toll plazas as well as the construction of a building near the highway, the court adjourned the hearing to Nov 16.
