The record
Written from the 1 report below. Nothing here is unsourced.
- The Ministry of Road Transport and Highways has published a draft proposal to extend the Pollution Under Control (PUC) certificate validity for BS6 private vehicles from one year to three years.
- Under the draft, BS6 vehicles under six years old would need testing once every three years, those aged six to ten years annually, and those over ten years every six months.
- Stricter rules are proposed for older vehicles, with BS4 vehicles tested every six months and BS1, BS2, and BS3 vehicles every three months.
- The proposal is not yet final, as the government has invited suggestions and objections from the public and stakeholders before issuing a final notification.
What to watch next
