Supreme Court to Hear Plea on Fuel Restrictions for Older Volvo Cars in Delhi
The Supreme Court agreed to hear a plea from Volvo car owners seeking relaxation of a rule that bars fuel stations in Delhi-NCR from refuelling vehicles exceeding age limits—10 years for diesel and 15 years for petrol cars. The owners argue their high-end Volvo cars comply with pollution norms despite their age. The court acknowledged the environmental rationale behind the restrictions but agreed to list the plea for urgent hearing.
