The Delhi Government on Friday announced that it will soon make Pollution Under Control Certificate (PUCC) mandatory for filling fuel at pumps. Vehicle owners will have to carry their PUCC to the fuel pump. In case the PUCC is found invalid they will have to get it reissued at the pump. The draft policy in this regard will be placed for public opinion before being notified, Environment Minister Gopal Rai said.
He added the policy will effectively help us ensure that polluting vehicles do not ply in city.
Rai said, “North India including Delhi face grave air pollution particularly in winter, With this policy in place, vehicles will be mandated to have their PUC certificate with them at the fuelling station.
