AAP Protests Delhi Toll Plazas Amid Pollution Concerns, Cites Supreme Court Directive

The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) protested at the Ghazipur toll plaza, demanding its closure to combat rising air pollution in Delhi. The party cited a Supreme Court directive for the Municipal Corporation of Delhi (MCD) to decide on temporary toll plaza shutdowns to reduce vehicular emissions. However, Mayor Raja Iqbal Singh stated the court did not issue a direct order for closure, and the MCD has submitted an affidavit detailing its steps. The Leader of Opposition in MCD called for immediate closure, suggesting alternative revenue sources.
