Delhi's 'no fuel for overage vehicles' policy may face delay, says minister | | | Agencies NEW DELHI, Mar 31: The Delhi government's decision to deny fuel to overage vehicles at refill stations across the capital starting 1st April may be delayed, as the required devices have not yet been installed at all locations, Delhi Environment Minister Manjinder Singh Sirsa said. The minister told PTI that the government is expediting the process to ensure a smooth transition, and a meeting will be held tonight to decide how much work remains and when the implementation will take place. He acknowledged that certain locations still lack the required facilities but emphasised that efforts are underway to complete the installation as quickly as possible. "We are trying to get it done at the earliest. Some locations still do not have the necessary installations, but we are working to ensure they are in place soon," he said, adding that "it is better to delay the rollout rather than start it without proper management." At the beginning of March, the Environment Minister announced that End-of-Life Vehicles would be denied fuel at refill stations across the capital starting 1st April. "We are ensuring that all fuel stations in Delhi have CCTV cameras that will determine the age of the vehicle based on the year of registration. Vehicles that do not meet the criteria will not be given fuel and will be penalised. The entire installation and software connection will be completed by 31st March," the minister had said while announcing the ban.
