One traffic police officer will be stationed at each of the 350 identified petrol pumps to monitor and prevent the refuelling of vehicles that have exceeded their prescribed lifespan — 10 years for diesel vehicles and 15 years for petrol vehicles.
Petrol pumps across Delhi will no longer provide fuel to end-of-life (EoL) vehicles starting July 1 under the directions of Commission for Air Quality Management (CAQM), with the Transport Department along with the Delhi Police and traffic personnel putting in place a detailed enforcement strategy to ensure strict compliance.
In a major step to curb vehicular pollution, authorities are gearing up for strict enforcement from Tuesday under the directions of the CAQM. The Transport Department has chalked out a detailed deployment plan involving personnel from its organisation, Delhi Police, Traffic Police and the Municipal Corporation of Delhi (MCD).
The Transport Department has finalised its deployment strategy for enforcement squads while MCD teams will also be deployed at the fuel stations. Delhi Police personnel will be deployed in fuel stations numbered 1 to 100 while the Transport Department will mobilise 59 exclusive teams across fuel stations numbered 101 to 159.
