New
Delhi,
Nov
13:
Owners
of
BS-III
petrol
and
BS-IV
diesel
four-wheelers
are
likely
to
be
able
to
take
out
their
vehicles
on
Delhi
roads
as
the
curbs
imposed
on
them
amid
rising
pollution
levels
ended
on
Sunday.

However,
a
Delhi
government
official
said
a
meeting
will
be
held
on
Monday
to
decide
whether
the
curbs
should
continue
or
not.
“The
restrictions
were
in
place
till
November
13
and
they
have
not
been
extended
yet.

The
AQI
(air
quality
index)
has
been
stable
in
the
last
four
days
in
the
city.
There
is
a
meeting
tomorrow
to
discuss
what
needs
to
be
done,”
he
said.
During
a
review
meeting
last
week,
the
Delhi
government’s
transport
department
had
decided
that
the
curbs
under
stage
3
of
the
Graded
Response
Action
Plan
(GRAP)
should
remain
in
place
for
the
next
few
days
instead
of
a
knee-jerk
reaction.
