</p><p>&nbsp; Recently after the <u><a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="https://carhunt.in/News/Diesel_vehicles_older_than_10_years_banned_in_Delhi">ban of decade old vehicles in Delhi-NCR</a></u> by the National Green Tribunal (NGT), the Haryana government has also followed the suite by banning of all 15-year-old petrol run cars and 10-year-old diesel run cars from running on the roads in the National Capital Region (NCR) on Thursday. The move is much more logical then odd-even scheme and ban of 2000cc above diesel motors which would actually make more significant difference to curb the pollution as newer bigger engines are more refined then decade old smaller capacity engine.</p><p>&nbsp; Krishan Lal Panwar, the transport minister, said, "I have issued the order and directed the authorities concerned for effective implementation of it, banning 10-year-old diesel and 15-year-old petrol vehicles in these four cities." Further adding to it, the minister said the state government wants to curb air pollution in such a way that it does not affect the national capital. This order affect Gurgaon, Faridabad, Sonepat and Jhajjar cities that belong to NCR. He further said that the aforementioned are being driven against the wall for contributing to the region’s pollution problems.</p><p>&nbsp; The announcement came after the NGT clarified that diesel cars that are 15 years or older cannot be given a "no-objection certificate" (NOC) to sell places outside NCR. The NGT has said that NOC will be granted for vehicles aged between 10 to 15 years to be sold outside the NCR giving some relief to owners. The move is a part of plan to curb on increasing air pollution. It started with the ban on registration of 2000cc diesel cars in the NCR and the <u><a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="https://carhunt.in/News/Odd-Even_scheme_in_Delhi_likely_to_comeback_in_December">odd-even scheme which will be imposed for third time</a></u> this year. This drive has not been limited to Delhi-NCR but spreading in other parts of India too like in Kerala and Harayan is just latest entrant to the list.</p><p></p>
