What is FASTag? Understanding & Significance 

FASTag is an electronic toll collection system designed to streamline toll payments on highways, offering a more efficient and convenient way to navigate toll plazas. The FASTag is affixed to a vehicle's windscreen and linked to a bank account or prepaid card. Utilizing RFID technology, the tag facilitates seamless toll payment as a vehicle equipped with FASTag approaches the toll booth. The scanner reads the tag, deducts the toll amount, and ensures a swift and cashless transaction.
