Pakistan, July 3 -- The Islamabad High Court has suspended the National Highway Authority's additional toll charges on non-M-Tag and low-balance M-Tag vehicles. The interim order blocks enforcement of a 50 percent surcharge until the next hearing. The decision provides temporary relief to motorists challenging the legality of the revised toll policy.

Justice Arbab Muhammad Tahir issued the order while hearing a petition against the NHA's notification dated May 30, 2025. The court restrained the authority from collecting the additional charges and issued notices to the Ministry of Communications, the NHA, and other respondents. All parties have been directed to submit their replies before the next hearing.
