Why No Tolls in Mizoram?

Mizoram maintains toll-free roads due to several unique factors:

• Low Traffic Volume: Insufficient vehicle density to justify toll collection
• Border State Status: Four-fifths of borders with Myanmar and Bangladesh
• Development Priority: Focus on connectivity rather than revenue generation
• Inner Line Permit: Controlled entry reduces through-traffic
