No coercive action against owners of 10-yr-old diesel vehicles, 15-yr-old petrol vehicles in Delhi-NCR: SC

The Supreme Court on Tuesday ordered that no coercive action be taken against owners of diesel vehicles over 10 years old and petrol vehicles over 15 years old in Delhi-NCR.

The Delhi government had moved the top court challenging the blanket ban on these vehicles.

A three-judge bench headed by Chief Justice Bhushan R Gavai heard the plea, which sought to recall the court's October 29, 2018, order that upheld the National Green Tribunal's initial directive.
