The order might instigate them to hold protests, triggering a law and order situation,” UP Transport Commissioner K Ravinder Naik told The Indian Express. The NGT had asked authorities to deregister and impound all vehicles older than 10 years in the National Capital Region (NCR). Officials of the UP government plan to meet EPCA chairman Bhurelal and transport department officials Friday to discuss modalities of the order issued by the NGT. They will also meet their counterparts in the Delhi government to discuss how the latter plan to implement the order in the capital. Large parts of western UP including Noida, Baghpat, Meerut, Ghaziabad and Bulandshahr fall under the NCR.
