The Delhi High Court on Thursday told the city government not to create panic among the citizens and give them more time to obtain colour-coded fuel stickers and high-security registration plates (HSRP) before it starts imposing ₹5,500 fine for violations.
A Bench of Justice Siddharth Mridul and Justice Talwant Singh said even they were clueless about the requirement of the stickers and asked the Delhi government’s counsel to come with “detailed instructions” regarding the steps taken by the government to publicise the move.
The Bench said even the vehicles of the High Court lacked these stickers and wondered whether they would be fined too.
