The Supreme Court on Wednesday agreed to hear a plea filed by a group of Volvo car owners seeking relaxation of the rule that bars fuel stations in the national capital from refuelling vehicles that have crossed their mandated "expiry" age.
Under the existing framework, diesel vehicles older than 10 years and petrol vehicles older than 15 years are barred from plying on roads in Delhi-NCR and can be denied fuel, in line with directions issued by the National Green Tribunal (NGT) and enforced through subsequent Supreme Court orders.
