Which vehicles from outside states were banned in Delhi and who got relief, know full details

These days a piece of misleading news is floating on the internet media regarding the entry of vehicles from other states of the country including UP and Haryana. It is being said that from November 27 to December 3 next month, there is a ban on entry of petrol and diesel vehicles in Delhi except for vehicles connected with essential services. If you have also read and heard such misleading news, then it is completely wrong and it is not close to the truth. After such misleading news, Delhi's Transport Minister Kailash Gahlot himself has said in a statement issued in the media that only the entry of commercial vehicles running on petrol and diesel is banned in Delhi and not on the entry of private vehicles.

Private vehicles can come and go in Delhi

There is no restriction on private vehicles coming from outside states in Delhi. They are coming and going to Delhi like before and will continue to do so in the future also. Entry of only commercial vehicles is banned in Delhi till December 3, not on private vehicles.

The situation of air pollution continues to be serious after Diwali and the Air Quality Index is running beyond 300. In such a situation, taking an important step in the fight against air pollution, Delhi Environment Minister Gopal Rai has announced that from November 27 (Saturday) to December 3, there will be a ban on the entry of petrol and diesel vehicles in Delhi, only electric ones engaged in essential services. And only CNG vehicles will get entry. This information is not completely correct, because to combat air pollution, only those vehicles which are operated on petrol and diesel have been banned from entering Delhi. At the same time, such news and information are being shared on the internet media that the entry of petrol and diesel vehicles coming from outside states is banned in Delhi till December 3.

Know- what has been said by the Environment Minister of Delhi

After the important meeting held on the last air pollution, Gopal Rai said that the level of air pollution in the capital Delhi is decreasing. In this episode, there has been an improvement in the Air Quality Index (AQI) as in the days before Diwali. The Delhi government has taken several measures to maintain this. Under this, the entry of trucks and other vehicles has been stopped except those involved in essential services from outside Delhi.

The color-coded sticker became mandatory

The Union Ministry of Road Transport and Highways has made High-Security Number Plate (HSRP) and color-coded stickers mandatory for all vehicles from April 1, 2019, two years ago. In such a situation, HSRP plates and color-coded stickers have started coming on all vehicles purchased after April 1, 2019. At the same time, the old vehicles which do not have a color-coded sticker, then definitely get it installed, or else a fine of Rs 5500 will have to be paid.
