Anandpur: A forum under the banner of development council of Anandpur today opposed collection of toll fees at Hasanpur on the National Highway -20 between Anandpur and Jajpur.

Questioning how the NHAI authorities could collect toll charges while the road work is incomplete, the agitators stopped collection of toll at the toll gate.
