Pollution: Over 5,800 vehicles challaned for violating GRAP Stage 3 rules- QHN


Delhi Traffic Police on Saturday said that they have issued more than 5,800 challans to vehicles as part of restrictions on BS III petrol and BS IV diesel vehicles to fight pollution in the Capital.

“As part of restrictions on BS III petrol and BS IV diesel vehicles till November 13 to fight pollution, 5882 vehicles were stopped/challaned for violations till 6 a.m. on November 11. Emergency vehicles are exempted,” said traffic police in a tweet.

With the aim to curb pollution levels in the Capital, recently in a review meeting, the city government’s transport department decided to keep the Graded Response Action Plan (GRAP) in stage-III for the next few days.

On Monday, Delhi Environment Minister Gopal Rai had said that the ban has been removed from construction work related to highways, pipelines etc.

“Except for the railway, Metro, airport, defence, hospital, etc., all other construction works will be banned under phase three of GRAP. The ban on BS III petrol and BS IV diesel vehicles will continue,” Rai had said.

Gopal Rai said the ban was imposed under Stage III of the GRAP and that it won’t be lifted yet.

Rai’s decision came after the Commission for Air Quality Management (CAQM) revoked the GRAP 4 measures in the NCR region.

  1. An outstanding share! I have just forwarded this onto a friend
    who was doing a little homework on this. And he actually
    bought me breakfast because I stumbled upon it for him… lol.

    So allow me to reword this…. Thank YOU for the meal!!
    But yeah, thanx for spending time to discuss this issue here on your
    web page.

  2. Hey there are using WordPress for your blog platform? I’m new to the blog world
    but I’m trying to get started and set up my own. Do you require any html coding expertise to make your own blog?
    Any help would be greatly appreciated!

  3. Have you ever considered about including
    a little bit more than just your articles? I mean, what you say is important and
    all. Nevertheless just imagine if you added some great
    pictures or videos to give your posts more, “pop”!
    Your content is excellent but with images and clips, this site could undeniably be one of the best
    in its niche. Awesome blog!

  4. You really make it seem so easy with your presentation but I find this topic to be actually
    something that I think I would never understand.
    It seems too complex and very broad for me. I’m looking
    forward for your next post, I’ll try to get the hang of it!

  5. Superb blog! Do you have any helpful hints for aspiring writers?
    I’m planning to start my own website soon but I’m a little lost on everything.
    Would you propose starting with a free platform
    like WordPress or go for a paid option? There are
    so many choices out there that I’m totally overwhelmed ..
    Any suggestions? Kudos!
