No need for odd-even scheme as the weather has cleared: Kejriwal

| @indiablooms | Nov 18, 2019, at 03:13 pm

New Delhi/IBNS: Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal on Monday said the odd-even scheme was no longer necessary as the haze enveloping the city has cleared.

The odd-even scheme which was implemented to reduce the number of vehicles on the streets of the capital city on Nov 4 ended on Nov 16.

The Kejriwal government had said the decision to extend the road-rationing rule would be reviewed on Nov 18.

Delhi's air quality had slipped to very severe category and the situation further deteriorated post the burning of crop-residue across Haryana and Punjab.

The odd-even scheme was first introduced in January 2016.
