With the pollution levels reaching an all-time high in New Delhi, the AAP government introduced the odd-even scheme. But now it looks like the Delhi government is forced to go back on the Odd-Even scheme, thanks to the pathetic public transport system.
The Delhi High Court mandated in the past that, New Delhi should be equipped with 11,000 buses against the current 5,425 buses. With two-wheelers also included in the Odd-Even scheme, the public transport system is not able to handle the extra 3.3 million two-wheeler riders.
‘The Delhi government spends thousands of crores on Metro projects, while it is least bothered about the general bus transport in the city. It costs roughly 45 lakhs for a standard bus, while it costs 450 Crores for 1 kilometer of Metro Line,’ said Shreya Gadepalli, South Asia director of ITDP – Institute for Transport and Development Policy.
‘The DTC might cease its operating by 2025, as 99% of its bus fleet will be over the 12-year operational limit of 7.5 lakh kilometers, whichever is later’said an official.
A bench headed by the Justice Swatanter (NGT Chairperson) passed remarks on the Delhi government for the lack of proper maintenance of the DTC buses. ‘Your buses make a lot of noise on the roads. Most parts of your buses either hang in the air or broken. They create a nuisance for everyone on the road,’ stated the bench.
