Agra: The sight of all the monuments of Agra including the Taj Mahal is going to be expensive now. The toll advisory committee has prepared a proposal to increase the toll on these monuments. Officials of the Agra Development Authority (ADA) say that the proposal will be delivered to the government by the end of this week. From there, the ticket rate will be increased as soon as it is agreed. The new rates may come into force in January 2020.

Facilities for tourists are developed by toll tax known for all monuments including the Taj Mahal. Tourists have to buy tickets from the Department of Archeology and the ADA gives toll tickets. Till now the archeology department had a higher ticket rate and the toll was less on the monuments. The ADA proposed to raise toll rates to be similar to ASI. The proposal was approved in the October 3 meeting of the toll advisory committee.

Now the proposal will be delivered to the government after all the formalities are completed in a week. Authority officials say that it may take at least a month for the government to agree. So it is expected that the new rates will be implemented in the new year itself. However, a proposal to increase ticket rates has already been sent to the government. The rule was not agreed to then.
