Mumbai ke kuch high-traffic business zones mein traffic aur pollution kam karne ke liye congestion tax lagane ka proposal aaya hai. Proposal ke mutabik, single-occupancy vehicles jo peak hours ke dauran busy areas mein enter karte hain, un par extra charge lagaya ja sakta hai.
Is initiative ka main aim road congestion reduce karna, air quality improve karna, aur logon ko public transport ya car-pooling jaise options use karne ke liye encourage karna hai. Civic circles ke mutabik, agar yeh plan implement hota hai, toh jo revenue collect hoga usse environment-friendly aur traffic management projects mein use kiya ja sakta hai.
Officials ne bataya ki yeh idea abhi discussion stage mein hai aur is par final decision aane se pehle public feedback aur detailed planning ki jaayegi.
