⚠️ Important Warnings

  • No central government toll exemption card exists for BKU. Toll plaza waivers are granted only through specific agreements between BKU factions and state authorities (usually for local farmers during harvest/protest periods).
  • Beware of fake websites demanding high fees (e.g., ₹1000+). The real union fee is nominal.
  • Physical verification of land ownership is often required – the union may send a representative to your village.
