Angry that many of
its directions were not being taken seriously by the enforcement agencies, the
National Green Tribunal on Monday gave one “last opportunity” to the NCT of
Delhi and its authorities to ensure compliance of its various orders to curb
air pollution in Delhi. A five-member bench headed by Chairperson Justice Swatanter Kumar also directed
the Delhi government to give its views on why all diesel vehicles, commercial
or otherwise, which are older than 10 years should not be stopped from plying
on the roads of Delhi.
