Delhi's biggest pollution violators: Bikes, not cars
Surprise: In Delhi, it's not cars but two-wheelers that top the list for breaking Pollution Under Control (PUC) rules.
The worst offenders are all bikes or scooters—like a 2016 Hero Passion Pro with 47 pending challans and an expired PUC.
Others in the "top five" include models from Hero, TVS, and Yamaha, some never even bothered to get a PUC certificate.
Why does this matter?
If you thought cars were the main polluters in Delhi, think again—two-wheelers make up nearly 78% of PUC violations here.
With over 105,000 challans issued since mid-October alone and stricter penalties now in place (think big fines or even up to three months' license disqualification), this is a wake-up call for anyone who rides.
It's a reminder that small actions—like keeping your bike's pollution check up to date—actually matter for everyone's air.
