PUC centres shut amid protest by pump owners over surge in charges
The Morning Standard
|July 16, 2024
SEVERAL people visiting PUC centres at petrol pumps for pollution certificates for their vehicles had to return emptyhanded as around 600 such centres across 400 petrol pumps here were closed on Monday as part of a strike called by petrol dealers and pump owners to voice dissatisfaction with the Delhi government's proposed hike in the PUC charges.

However, transport department officials said the strike did not have much of an impact. "There are around 945 pollution under control centres (PUCCs) in Delhi, including around 600 at petrol pumps. The remaining centres were functional, so it was not a 100-per cent closure," an official said.
Another official said around 3.5 lakh PUC certificates are issued in Delhi every month, which means around 3,000 to 3,500 such certificates are issued on a daily basis.
