Odd-even plan to curb pollution in Delhi officially ends today

The odd-even plan to curb pollution in the national capital, officially ends today. The Delhi government yesterday said, the decision on the second phase of the experiment is likely to be taken in the review meeting scheduled for Monday. Terming the initiative to be a success, the Arvind Kejriwal government has decided to hold a thanksgiving event coming Sunday. <br/><br/>Meanwhile Delhi High Court yesterday said, the odd-even scheme of the AAP government was a success to some extent, as the idea had appealed to the people and not because of the 2000 rupees fine imposed for violations. <br/><br/>A bench made the observation in response to the submission of Delhi Traffic Police that the scheme was successful mainly due to the fine payable for violation. The bench added that the Delhi government was successful in publicising the concept and making it appealing to the masses.
