The Delhi government on Tuesday withdrew its petition from the National Green Tribunal (NGT) seeking amendment in its November 11 order on odd-even car rationing scheme. The government had sought exemption of women drivers from the scheme, saying it may affect the safety and security of women. However, the green court rapped the Kejriwal government and asked what constitutes a health emergency according to them. The NGT also suggested that Delhi government take care of the logical explanations for Odd-Even exemption when they approach again. Municipal corporations, the Central Pollution Control Board, and the the Delhi Pollution Control Committee have also been asked to cooperate.
