Demand for BS-VI and CNG cars increased in Delhi's weddings due to pollution crisis 

Delhi's daily life has been disrupted by the current crisis of air quality including the wedding and travel industry. As the city is grappling with severe pollution levels. The implementation of Phase IV of the Graded Response Action Plan (GRAP) on Monday has led to a ban on BS-III petrol and BS-IV diesel vehicles. Which has brought significant changes in transport and logistics.

The Central Pollution Control Board implemented GRAP-IV measures after Delhi's Air Quality Index (AQI) crossed the 450 mark earlier this week, entering the "severe-plus" category. Though the restrictions have their justification in terms of curbing vehicular emissions, they are making life difficult for travel agencies trying to meet their earlier commitments, especially for weddings. BS-VI-compliment Maruti Suzuki Ertiga, Toyota Innova, and CNG-powered vehicles have turned out to be the favored choice for transport providers trying to get by with this sudden ban.

Travel agencies, which rely heavily on diesel vehicles during the wedding season, are now under pressure to explore alternatives to cleaner fuel vehicles. According to reports, several agencies have reported increased demand for BS-VI and CNG vehicles, putting financial pressure on their operations.
