Delhi Pradesh Congress Committee President Devendra Yadav said that the move to implement fuel ban on old trains is not only an environmental decision, but a deep political conspiracy, in which both the Bharatiya Janata Party and the Aam Aadmi Party are connivance with the connivance.
He taunted and said, “The people of Delhi voted in the name of Modi ji, but today when the sword hangs on the livelihood, then why is the Prime Minister silent”.
‘Modi government should intervene’
Devendra Yadav said, “When the order of the NGT has already been justified by the Supreme Court, it is like giving false expectations to the people by wasting time to go to the Supreme Court again. If really is to be given relief, then the Modi government should intervene in the court itself,”
There is a trick to confuse the public …
He said that the Delhi government’s visit to the Supreme Court is a trick to confuse the public and give showy relief, while the real responsibility is that of the Central Government, because the Air Quality Management Commission has been constituted by the Modi government itself.
The Congress leader said that on April 7, 2015, the NGT had banned diesel and 15 years old petrol vehicles older than 10 years, which the Supreme Court justified on 29 October 2018, on the basis of the same order, the CAQM. On 23 April 2025, direction numbers 88 and 89 were issued, which was supported by the Supreme Court on 6 May 2025.
Devendra Yadav said that the Kejriwal government himself suggested to install ANPR cameras on petrol pumps and now when there is a technical flaw of cameras, the question arises, “Is there a scam in the purchase of these cameras?” Devendra Yadav demanded a CBI or judicial inquiry into the entire episode.
