After rap from the National Green Tribunal (NGT), the Kejriwal-led Delhi government on Tuesday withdrew its review plea to exempt women drivers and two-wheelers from the odd-even vehicle rationing scheme. The development comes a day after the Delhi government moved the green court seeking amendment to its November 11 order on odd-even scheme.
While hearing the review petition, the green tribunal asked the Delhi government as to why it can't run ladies only buses to solve the problem of transport during odd-even scheme. "When reports have stated that two-wheelers are more polluting than four-wheelers, why do you intend to give arbitrary exemptions? Is this a joke? What does one stand to gain from this?", the green tribunal asked. The tribunal even said that it wants logical explanations if approached again.
