Delhi Petrol Pump New Rules: Old Vehicles Banned from July 1, Know the Fines

Delhi Petrol Pump New Rules: Old vehicles running on petrol and diesel in the country’s capital, Delhi,  will now become junk, because the government has made such a rule. The government has taken this decision intending to reduce the pollution level and make the environment clean. From July 1, if a petrol vehicle older than 15 years and a diesel vehicle older than 10 years is seen, then there will be no mercy.

These vehicles will not even get fuel from the petrol pump, apart from which the police will also mark and confiscate them. The vehicle owner will also be fined. The Delhi government has also issued this order to the pump operators, which will be implemented from today. Strict action will be taken if negligence is shown. Due to this, fewer vehicles can now be seen running on the roads of Delhi.

A penalty will be imposed on the vehicle owner.

Vehicles have also had a great impact on the increasing pollution in the capital, Delhi. The government is taking this strict step to reduce the pollution level in Delhi. For this, the Delhi government has issued guidelines to the petrol pump owners and banned filling fuel in 15-year-old petrol vehicles and diesel vehicles older than 10 years.

If, for any reason, on a vehicle older than the prescribed limit, areas are seen on the road, a fine of Rs 10,000 will be imposed on it. A fine of Rs 5 will be imposed on the two-wheeler owner whose age limit has been completed. Along with this, the vehicle will also be seized. The government has also issued instructions to deploy police at petrol pumps for this.

Police will seize the vehicle.

To implement the new rule, the Delhi government has ordered the deployment of teams of the Commission for Air Quality Management (CAQM), Transport Department, Delhi Municipal Corporation (MCD) and other enforcement agencies, including the Delhi Police, at the petrol pumps of the capital.

For information, let us tell you that the government had initially talked about banning old vehicles running on petrol-diesel and CNG. But later, CNG vehicles have been given relief.
