Atishi criticised the BJP in Delhi for reversing its fuel ban on overage vehicles, accusing them of troubling people and colluding with car manufacturers.

Atishi, Leader of Opposition in the Delhi Assembly, on Thursday questioned the BJP government in Delhi for taking a U-turn over its fuel ban policy for overage vehicles.

The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leader asked if the BJP is running a government or a panchayat in Phulera, apparently referring to a popular web series “Panchayat.”

“Is the BJP running a government or a panchayat in Phulera? One day they issue an order, the next day they say they are writing a letter to withdraw it. Why are they troubling people? The BJP, along with car manufacturers and dealers, is working hand in glove. Because of this alliance, they want to scrap 62 lakh vehicles and buy new ones,” she told news agency PTI.

Earlier in the day, the Delhi government had written to the Commission for Air Quality Management (CAQM), saying the fuel ban on overage vehicles is not feasible due to technological challenges and complex systems.

Addressing a press conference, Delhi Environment Minister Manjinder Singh Sirsa on Thursday said that there was discontent among people due to this move and the government stood with them.

The government has suggested that the ban should be implemented across the National Capital Region (NCR), he added and slammed the previous AAP regime for fixing “strong norms” for overage vehicles.

The Delhi government from July 1, banned fuel for end-of-life vehicles — 10 years or older for diesel vehicles and 15 years or older for petrol vehicles — that are deregistered and not allow to ply on the roads as per the court’s orders.

The transport department and traffic police are impounding end-of-life vehicles (ELVs) reaching at the petrol pumps for refuelling after the implementation of the ban.
