Delhi govt moves NGT for modification of odd-even scheme order

New Delhi, November 13- The Delhi government on Monday moved the National Green Tribunal (NGT) seeking amendment in its November 11 order on odd-even car rationing scheme.
The green panel said it would hear the plea on Tuesday.
The NGT had on November 11 given a conditional nod to the AAP government’s decision to implement the odd-even car rationing scheme for five days from November 13, ordering that no exemption should be allowed to “any person or officer and two-wheelers”. It had said that the odd-even scheme should be implemented “without any default” as and when PM (particulate matter) 10 level goes above 500 micrograms per cubic metre and PM 2.5 level crosses the limit of 300 micrograms per cubic metre during a span of 48 hours.
The government had on Saturday scrapped its plan to implement the odd-even vehicle rationing scheme it had slated to start from Monday, after the NGT said there would be no exemption for women, two-wheelers and government servants.
