New Delhi, Dec 4 (IBNS) To cope with high pollution level in Delhi, the state government led by Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) has declared that private vehicles with odd and even registration numbers will be allowed on roads only on alternate days from January.

According to media reports, from Jan 1, 2016,  vehicles with number plates ending with an odd number will be allowed to ply one day and those ending with an even number the next day while the same is extended for public vehicles too.

The decision was arrived at after a meeting called by Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal following some recent observations by the judiciary on alarming pollution.

The Delhi High Court that living in Delhi is like "living in a gas chamber" while slamming agencies of government the  National Green Tribunal (NGT) Wednesday directed the Delhi government to identify “critically polluted areas” so that  immediate advisories can be issued to the public.
