HYDERABAD: Though the Union Ministry for Road Transport and Highways is contemplating to allow retrofitting of Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) and Liquified Petroleum Gas (LPG) kits for Bharat Stage VI (BS6) vehicles, thousands of auto-rickshaws plying in the city don’t adhere to the Centre’s norms.
While the drivers are not bothered about replacing or recalibrating the existing kits as it cost over `15,000, the Road Transport Authority (RTA), which is responsible for the enforcement of norms, is yet to address this defiance, even as activists point out the lurking danger.
