The plans and their implementation strategies were discussed during the inter-state coordination meeting that the Delhi Traffic Police held on Thursday with other concerned stakeholders, including the city’s civic agencies and police authorities of the neighbouring states.
The objective of the meeting was to ensure effective implementation of the Graded Response Action Plan (GRAP) and directions issued by the Commission for Air Quality Management (CAQM), said deputy commissioner of police (traffic) SK Singh.
Special CP Chaudhry also asked the officials to ensure preventing the entry of non-compliant inter-city and inter-state buses into Delhi, and such public transport vehicles must be diverted at the borders itself, as their diversion after entering Delhi leads to traffic congestion and additional air pollution. the traffic police have also asked the concerned authorities to strictly enforce no-entry timings, check non-destined and overloaded vehicles, and take action against vehicles transporting construction and demolition (C&D) material in violation of prescribed norms While setting up joint enforcement teams at the borders for effective implementation was planned.
