Let us inform you that Delhi Environment Minister Gopal Rai has called an urgent meeting today to discuss the implementation of the Supreme Court's observations regarding the Odd-Even scheme to be implemented from November 13 to November 20.

In this regard, an official said that the meeting called to implement the Supreme Court's observations will start at 12 noon, in which representatives of transport, revenue, and other departments will attend.

Odd-Even scheme is a sham, what is the benefit from it: Supreme Court

The Supreme Court on Tuesday also targeted the odd-even policy of the Delhi government to control air pollution and asked whether any assessment has been made as to how much pollution it reduces. The court called the plan a sham. Instead, on the suggestion of the amicus curiae, the court has also sought a response from the Delhi government on stopping diesel vehicles with orange stickers. The court has also suggested stopping the entry of taxis with outside numbers for a few days.

The court has ordered the Delhi government to monitor that garbage is not burnt in the open. These orders were given by the Supreme Court on Tuesday during the hearing on air pollution in Delhi. The Delhi government has announced to implementation of the odd-even scheme for vehicles in Delhi from November 13 after Diwali to improve the polluted air of the capital.

This scheme means that on one day those vehicles will run whose last number on the registration plate is odd and on the next day those vehicles will run whose last number is even. Advocate Aparajita Singh, who is assisting the court in the hearing of the case, said that color stickers have been issued in vehicles in Delhi.
