The state cabinet on Monday approved a new scheme for improving surface connectivity in 108 backward blocks of the state.

Vehicles financed under the new Scheme for Rural Transport Connectivity would be exempted from motor vehicle tax and permit fees, official sources said. The scheme aims at augmenting passenger transport services in Maoist-affected areas of the state, sources added.
