The Supreme Court today refused urgent hearing of a petition challenging the Delhi government's notification on odd-even scheme to curb pollution in the city. Terming the petition as a "publicity stunt", a bench headed by Chief Justice T S Thakur said, there is no urgency in the matter. The bench, also comprising justices A K Sikri and R Banumathi came down heavily on the petitioner saying the government is taking some step to control the pollution. People are dying due to pollution and you are challenging it for publicity.<br/><br/>The Chief Justice also said that even judges are doing car pooling and such type of petitions are meant to frustrate the effort, it said, adding that it may impose heavy cost. The court, however, said that it would ask authorities like Delhi Metro to augment public transport system to ensure that the public does not face difficulty.<br/><br/>The observations came when the petition, field by one B Badrinath, was mentioned for urgent hearing before the bench. Earlier, the High Court had on January 11 refused to interfere with the AAP government's scheme, observing that restrictions under the scheme were only till January 15.
