Staggered work timings to curb pollution in Delhi

Among measures that came into effect were bans on private constructions and a slew of vehicles, including BS-3 and BS-4 light motor vehicles, BS-3 or lower medium goods vehicles, and all interstate buses except CNG, BS-6 and electric ones.

Staggered work timings which will come into effect from Saturday, after the lieutenant governor approved a proposal for the same late Friday. While clearing the proposal, the LG said that the staggered timings should have come into effect from November 1, and faulted the state government for delay.

The LG’s order also made it clear that the approval would be in place till February 2025 and would come into effect whenever Grap Stage 3 comes into effect.
