What about trucks entering Delhi? A recent study by the Air Pollution Action Group (AirPACT), IIT Delhi and TERI offers a closer look at the trucks entering the capital every day. (https://www.teriin.org/policy-brief/towards-cleaner-freight-delhi) The study estimates that 16,900 heavy-duty trucks enter Delhi daily. Around 92 per cent of these trucks report Delhi as their destination, while only eight per cent are passing through the city. Most trucks entering Delhi already comply with the latest emission norms. About 62 per cent are BS-VI vehicles, while 28 per cent are BS-IV and 10 per cent are BS-III or older.
