The 'No PUCC, No Fuel' rule is to be enforced in mission mode at how many fuel stations in Delhi?
- A.250
- B.350
- C.500
- D.750
Correct answer
Explanation
The correct answer is 500. The rule denies fuel to a vehicle that has no valid pollution under control certificate, and it is to be applied in mission mode through a city-wide awareness and enforcement campaign at every fuel station equipped with automatic number plate recognition, of which there are five hundred. Pumps that fail to apply the rule will face action. The options of two hundred and fifty, three hundred and fifty and seven hundred and fifty are all wrong because they do not match the count of camera-enabled stations named in the plan. Other transport measures cleared at the same meeting include a campaign for the Delhi Metro Sarthi App and last-mile connectivity at all 228 Metro stations.
