The Delhi High Court declined to stay the city administration's decision to bar non-Delhi-registered vehicles that do not meet BS-VI emission standards from entering the capital between November 1 and January 31. The court issued notice on a petition filed by Faridabad-based lawyer Gurmukh Dass Kohli and listed the case for hearing with a related matter on November 27. The restriction, introduced as part of Delhi's winter pollution-control measures, bars petrol and diesel vehicles registered outside the capital that do not comply with BS-VI emission standards. Electric and CNG vehicles, as well as BS-VI-compliant vehicles, are exempt. Meanwhile, intensified checks at Delhi's interstate borders led to long queues on roads connecting the capital with Haryana and Uttar Pradesh. Heavy congestion was reported at the Delhi-Gurugram, Delhi-Noida, Delhi-Ghaziabad, Delhi-Sonipat and Delhi-Najafgarh borders.
