  • | Saturday | 16th November, 2024

Greenpeace India and Public Transport Forum on Friday wrote to the Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC) requesting the introduction of a Clean Air Concession on metro fares during severe air pollution days. In the letter, the organisations highlighted the need for an efficient and affordable transportation system that could bring down emission levels in the city.               "This initiative could play a transformative role in making clean, efficient transit affordable, thus encouraging the citizen to shift to sustainable public transport," the letter said. The organisations proposed several recommendations, including reducing metro fares by 20-30 per cent on high-pollution days and encouraging people to use public transport instead of private vehicles.
