"A new draft policy released by the Delhi government proposes to ban new two-wheelers run on fossil fuels from 2028, in an effort to manage emissions in one of the world's most polluted cities."
"Two-wheelers constitute approximately 67% of the total vehicle stock in Delhi, making their rapid electrification critical for achieving meaningful reductions in vehicular emissions."
"Delhi is regularly cited as one of India's most polluted cities with thick smog, filled with pollutants, settling over the capital every winter."
Delhi's government has proposed a ban on new fossil fuel-powered two-wheelers starting in 2028 to address severe air pollution. Two-wheelers make up about 67% of the vehicle stock in the city, contributing significantly to emissions. A recent report indicates that vehicular emissions account for approximately 23% of air pollution in the National Capital Region during winter months. The initiative aims to promote the rapid electrification of two-wheelers, which is essential for reducing pollution levels and improving public health in the capital.
