Supreme Court rejects plea to review DND flyway toll-free verdict

In a significant relief for thousands of daily commuters, the Supreme Court on Friday refused to review its December 2024 verdict that upheld making the Delhi-Noida-Direct (DND) flyway toll-free. A bench comprising Justices Surya Kant and N Kotiswar Singh dismissed a review petition filed by the Noida Toll Bridge Company Ltd (NTBCL), the private entity operating the DND flyway. The firm had sought reconsideration of the court’s decision, arguing that the Comptroller and Auditor General’s (CAG) report—relied upon by the court—contained positive remarks about the company that were not reflected in the final verdict.
