Fastag will be mandatory in all trains from January 1. The announcement has been made by Union Road Transport and Highways Minister Nitin Gadkari. He said that after fasting in all vehicles, toll plazas would not have to stop for cash payment. In order to promote electronic toll collection, the Ministry of Road Transport and Highways has issued a notification, under which fastag will be mandatory for all four wheelers from 1 January 2021. In such a situation, Fastag will be mandatory for those older than January 1, which have been sold before December 1, 2017.

Earlier, Nitin Gadkari announced that the government is preparing to take toll with GPS technology. All the vehicles will be equipped with GPS. In this, the money will be cut automatically by tracking the car with GPS. This facility will be ready in the next two years. He said, there is a plan to completely eliminate tolls in two years. After this happens, there will be no toll booths on any highway in the next two years.

To implement this entire decision, the government has amended the Central Motor Vehicles Act-1989. Fastag was earlier made mandatory for new four-wheelers at the time of registration from December 1, 2017 onwards.
