Ban on old vehicles is conspiracy against public interest: Naresh Kumar

New Delhi, July 1 (UNI) Senior spokesperson of Delhi Pradesh Congress Committee (DPCC), Naresh Kumar, today slammed the ban imposed by the Delhi Government on old vehicles,
calling it a “conspiracy against public interest.”
He called the move as clear evidence of a "nexus between the government and automobile companies".
Kumar alleged that the BJP-led Central and Delhi governments are deliberately pushing the scrapping of fully functional and non-polluting vehicles to promote the sale of new vehicles.
This is a well-planned strategy designed to benefit automobile manufacturers while putting
financial burden on common people of Delhi.
He said that despite strict emission standards ranging from BS-II to BS-VI, the government is
turning vehicles into scrap after just 10 or 15 years, which is irrational and unjust.
Kumar said that if the government is genuinely concerned about pollution, it should focus on developing zero-emission technologies.
Kumar warned the government that if this decision is not withdrawn immediately, the Congress
party will take to the streets along with the public and launch a massive protest against this unjust policy and the collusion behind it.
