NEW DELHI: The Supreme Court on Tuesday ordered protection from coercive action for owners of diesel vehicles more than 10 years old and petrol vehicles over 15 years old in Delhi-NCR.
A bench of Chief Justice BR Gavai and Justices K Vinod Chandran and NV Anjaria passed the interim order after Solicitor General Tushar Mehta, representing the Delhi government, sought relief.
“Issue notice, returnable in four weeks. In the meantime, we direct that no coercive steps be taken against the owners on the ground that vehicles are 10 years old in respect of diesel vehicles and 15 years old in respect of petrol vehicles,” the bench stated.
The Delhi government has challenged the blanket ban on such vehicles before the top court.
