India News: Defending the decision to hike parking rates in the capital, Delhi Chief Minister Sheila Dikshit today said people buying high-end cars can afford to pay more money for parking their vehicles.

"In the city, every rate has gone up. Cost has gone up.
Those who can pay more money to buy high-end cars, they can afford to pay Rs ten to 20 more for parking," Dikshit told reporters on the sidelines of the India Gem and Jewellery Fair here.
