(Screengrab) We have collected some of the memes that people have shared on X: The government has launched several projects for smooth road connectivity. These projects aim to reduce travel time and enhance travel experiences. However, this also means an increased toll tax for most of these highways. Reportedly, India has invested billions of dollars to expand the national highways in the last decade. In June 2024, the National Highways Authority of India increased the toll around 3-5 percent. Despite the benefits of improved roads, some people are not happy with the hike—hence, the flooding of memes on social media, especially X. “As the election process is over, the revision of user fee (toll) rates, which was put on hold during the elections, would become effective from June 3,” an official from the National Highways Authority of India told news agency Reuters. The decision about the increased rate was announced a day after the polls were concluded for elections to the 18th Lok Sabha. People have posted varied memes, from mimicking songs to using famous film scenes. Some also posted jokes to put forth their points.
