Delhi Transport Dept mandates colour-coded fuel stickers for vehicles

The Delhi Transport Department has mandated vehicle owners in the National Capital Territory to affix colour-coded stickers on their vehicles to help identify fuel types to combat rising pollution levels.

According to a public notice issued by the department, the directive is in line with the Supreme Court’s order dated August 12, 2018, and subsequent amendments to Rule 50 of the Central Motor Vehicles Rules, 1989.

The vehicle owners in the NCT of Delhi will now be required to install chromium-based hologram stickers, the notice read.

The colour-coded stickers are designed to assist enforcement personnel in visually identifying a vehicle’s fuel type during road checks.
