“Diesel heavy vehicles plying in Delhi at night will have to pay for polluting the city’s air. In its first budget, the AAP government has proposed congestion fees of Rs 100 to Rs 1,500 on different classes of goods vehicles in the form of a tax. More than 50,000 heavy vehicles enter the city every day. However, there will be no charge on buses and diesel taxis.
