Diesel Vehicles: Due to increasing air pollution, many steps have been taken by NGT i.e. National Green Tribunal in the capital Delhi. Registration of diesel vehicles is also a part of this series.
Diesel vehicles are not allowed to be registered for more than 10 years in Delhi. That is, if someone buys a diesel vehicle, he can drive it on the roads of Delhi only for 10 years. However, in the meantime, a big news has come from the Supreme Court i.e. the highest court of the country. Yes, the apex court has extended the registration period of diesel vehicles by 5 years. But the increase is for the special vehicles of SPG.

A big decision has been taken by the country’s Supreme Court. Under this, the Special Protection Group (SPG) has got a big relief. The Supreme Court has extended the registration period of three special diesel vehicles to be included in the security squad for five years.
Actually, a petition was filed by NGT regarding this and it was demanded that diesel vehicles should be discontinued in 10 years as per the rules. But during the hearing on this petition, the Supreme Court gave relief to SPG and directed to extend the registration period of three vehicles.
