"Tomorrow between 9 a.m and 11 a.m., there would be a coordination trial of all the teams. In the coordination trial run, it would be decided as to where would the civil defence, traffic police teams and SDMs teams would be deployed. The public won't face disruptions during this period. No vehicle would be challaned. Volunteers would be there to create awareness among the public," he said.

 

The scheme, which will be implemented for 15 days, has been proposed to curb pollution in the national capital by restricting movement of private vehicles based on their registration numbers.
