NEW DELHI: The Supreme Court on Monday said that it will ask an agency to enhance Delhi's green cover amid concerns over the city's bad air.
It also added that it could eventually consider passing an order to ensure all cars used by the government and state-owned enterprises and organisations be electric.
Dealing with matters arising from a public interest litigation filed four decades ago by lawyer and activist MC Mehta on the poor air quality in Delhi, the bench pulled up the Delhi government for not doing enough to enhance the Capital's green cover. The bench of justices Abhay S Oka and Augustine George Masih said that in June this year the court directed the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) government to take constructive steps in this direction but nothing has been done since then except for holding meetings.
