The Arvind Kejriwal government's Odd-Even scheme will continue till January 15 as planned, the Delhi High Court ruled today and said it would continue hearing petitions challenging the new traffic rules on January 15.

The court said it would "not interfere with the notification" that allows only cars with odd-numbered licence plates on Delhi's roads on odd-numbered dates, and those with even-numbered plates on the other days till this Friday.

The government, the judges said, could consider some of the points raised by petitioners on Odd-Even.

On Friday the court had reserved judgement on whether the scheme should be allowed to run till January 15, but criticised the city's public transport as "insufficient" and observed that people were inconvenienced.

It had earlier asked why the the Delhi government's experiment to ban private cars on alternate days should last more than a week.
