Delhi's Fuel Stations Enforce 'No PUC, No Fuel' Rule

The Delhi government has intensified its enforcement of a rule prohibiting fuel sales to vehicles without a valid Pollution Under Control (PUC) certificate, resulting in over 15,000 vehicles being rejected fuel access over a four-day period. This measure aims to combat the ongoing air quality issues in the city.

In an intensified effort to combat vehicle pollution, the Delhi government has reinforced its 'no PUC, no fuel' rule. Data shows over 15,000 vehicles without a Pollution Under Control (PUC) certificate were denied fuel access from April 26 to 29.

This stricter measure aims to improve Delhi's air quality, following Chief Minister Rekha Gupta's renewed commitment in April to ensure rigorous compliance with this rule.

According to authorities, 15,678 vehicles without valid PUCs were turned away from ten fueling stations over these four days, signaling an increased on-ground enforcement as part of an ongoing strategy to address the capital's pollution challenge.
