Delhi Air Pollution: The government has banned the operation of BS-III petrol and BS-IV diesel four-wheelers across the national capital.
As toxic smog blankets India's capital, pushing the Air Quality Index (AQI) into the 'severe' category with a reading of 414 this morning, the Delhi government has implemented stringent measures to curb pollution under Stage III of the Graded Response Action Plan (GRAP).
The government has banned the operation of BS-III petrol and BS-IV diesel four-wheelers across the national capital. Violators will face penalties under Section 194(1) of the Motor Vehicle Act, 1988, which translates to a fine of Rs 20,000.
