End of days: Delhi's fuel ban pushes panic sales; vehicle owners forced to scrap working cars
Tuesday, 24 June 2025 () Delhi's crackdown on end-of-life vehicles, starting July 1, has triggered panic among owners. Facing fuel denial, impounding, and scrapping, many are selling their old vehicles despite them being in good condition. Critics argue for fitness certifications instead of outright bans, citing that well-maintained older cars can be less polluting than poorly serviced newer models.
