    He made the announcement at a press briefing where he detailed the contours of the road-rationing scheme, which is to be implemented from November 4-15.

    He also announced that violations under the rule will attract a fine of Rs. 4,000.

    Violations under the odd-even scheme will land you with a Rs. 4,000 fine, up from the Rs. 2,000 fine that was previously imposed.

    Under the scheme, vehicles are to ply alternatively on odd and even dates depending on whether their license plate number ends in an odd or even number.

  • Last week, Kejriwal had announced that private CNG vehicles will not be exempt under the scheme, however, "women driving alone, cars having all women as occupants and women accompanied by children aged less than 12 years will be exempted."

    Speaking on Thursday, Kejriwal said that two-wheelers will also be exempted under the scheme.

    He said private vehicles ferrying schoolchildren will also be exempt.

    Answering a query on what would happen if a vehicle was returning after having dropped schoolchildren, a Delhi government official said the vehicles must return before 8 am, when the scheme comes into force.

    Kejriwal said that they will offer more clarification soon.
