New Delhi, December 29
Two days ahead of the roll out of the odd-even scheme, the Delhi government today decided to withdraw its earlier order to slap repeat fines of Rs 2,000 for each violation by motorists in the course of a day.
The decision was reached at a meeting Delhi Police Commissioner B S Bassi had with the state's Transport Minister Gopal Rai.
Bassi and Rai deliberated at length on how to ensure coordination between Delhi Police and the city government for effective enforcement of the ambitious scheme aimed at significantly reducing air pollution.
Rai said following a request by the Police Commissioner, Delhi government decided to reverse its earlier decision. — PTI
