WHY ALLOW TRUCKS? SC FLAGS DELHI GOVT'S FAILURE ON GRAP-4 CURBS

The bench said it will consider on Nov 25 whether the GRAP-IV restrictions should be continued.

- 

The Supreme Court on Friday directed the Delhi government and Police to immediately set up checkpoints on all 113 entry points to Delhi to check the entry of trucks in the national capital.

A bench of Justices Abhay S Oka and Augustine George Masih said the personnel who are going to man the entry points must be clearly informed about the accepted items to enter in trucks under essential commodities.

It appointed 13 members of the Bar as court commissioners to visit the entry points to Delhi and verify whether entry of trucks is being stopped.

The order of the apex court came after it was told that there are 113 entry points and the vigil is maintained primarily at 13 major entry points.
