BAN ON VEHICLES WHICH ARE 15 YEARS OLD.
The government is thinking of banning vehicles which are more
than 15 years old in case of petrol vehicles(both Two wheelers
& Four wheelers) & 10 year old diesel vehicles to cut the
pollution levels in the metros to start with.But this move will affect Public
and movement of essential services.The Ministry of Road transport &
Highways said, that most countries adopt fitness tests,including emission
checks of vehicles as criterion for curbing pollution and NOT the age
of the vehicle. This may appear to be prudent way of curbing pollution
instead of blanket ban on vehicles.
