India Supreme Court Asks Government: Why Not Euro-5, Euro-6 Limits

摘要

he India Supreme Court on July 1 asked the federal government to explain why it hasn’t moved to introduce Euro-5 and Euro-6 ultra-low sulfur fuels and ultra-clean vehicle emissions standards. According to a report from the Deccan Herald, the Supreme Court action comes in response to a public interest litigation (PIL) petition from economist Arvind Gupta. The PIL from Gupta seeks “implementation of updated emission norms, including Euro-V and Euro-VI for diesel vehicles and restriction of [diesel] fuel subsidy to a target class,” according to the report.
