The article from The Indian Express discusses the decision by the Haryana government to ban diesel autorickshaws in Gurgaon starting January 1, 2024, as part of efforts to combat pollution. This ban aligns with the National Green Tribunal's (NGT) directive to phase out diesel vehicles older than 10 years. The move has sparked concerns among autorickshaw drivers about their livelihoods, with many expressing fears over the cost of transitioning to CNG or electric vehicles. The government has promised to provide financial assistance and support for drivers to switch to cleaner fuel alternatives, although specifics on the aid remain unclear. Additionally, the article mentions that the Regional Transport Authority (RTA) will enforce this ban strictly, with penalties for non-compliance, and there are plans to introduce electric autorickshaws to promote sustainable transport options in the city.
