Delhi govt moves SC on removal of diesel cabs

May 03, 2016 13:31

Delhi Government moves SC requesting the removal of diesel cabs from the NCR in a phased manner, saying the order has led to law and order problems.

Traffic on the Delhi-Noida Direct flyway came to a near standstill on Tuesday morning, as Delhi faced its second straight day of crippling traffic jams.

Traffic was brought to a grinding halt by taxi owners who are protesting a Supreme Court order that made it illegal to operate diesel vehicles as taxis.

The protests near the toll plaza on the busy DND, one of Delhi's key links to the residential and office hub of Noida meant traffic was bottlenecked. Motorists headed towards Delhi then started driving in the opposite lane as well, restricting traffic heading towards Noida and making the jam worse.
