Transport Deptt to soon ban BS3 Petrol and BS4 Diesel Cars in Delhi

If you are driving a BS-3 petrol or BS-4 diesel car in Delhi, stop using them immediately.

This is because the Transport Department plans to ban these vehicles soon. Once the Grape-3 rules are implemented, these cars will be prohibited.

Additionally, if a BS-3 petrol or BS-4 diesel vehicle is found on the road, the owner will face a fine of ₹20,000.

Currently, there are 2,07,038 petrol vehicles and 3,09,225 BS-4 diesel vehicles registered in Delhi.

The Transport Department has deployed 114 teams

This action is being taken to address air pollution.

Additionally, the National Air Quality Commission has directed the promotion of electric and CNG vehicles in Delhi and the surrounding NCR region.

Additionally, the Transport Department has deployed 114 teams to take action against vehicles that contribute to pollution.

It’s important to note that vehicles used for emergency services and government work are exempt from this ban.

What is Bharat Stage? 

Bharat Stage was introduced to monitor air pollution from engines and was implemented by the Ministry of Forest and Environment and Climate Change.

Bharat Stage emission standards follow European norms.

Reports indicate that after these standards were implemented, there was a noticeable decrease in the sulfur content, nitrogen oxides, hydrocarbons, and particulate matter in fuel.

The BS4 standard for petrol engines emits 1.0 g/km of carbon monoxide, 0.18 g/km of hydrocarbons, and nitrogen oxides, along with 0.025 g/km of respirable suspended particulate matter.

The BS standard evaluates the pollution generated by vehicles, helping the government assess the level of pollution produced by exhaust emissions.
