Ban on E- Rickshaws continues till guideline on them: High Court
  • 5 years ago
The ban on e-rickshaws in the city will continue as the Delhi High Court today made it clear that it cannot allow them to ply unless there are guidelines to regulate them and asked the Centre to come up with draft regulations on the issue.
"Our concern is very very clear and we cannot allow these e-rickshaws without any regulations," a bench of justice BD Ahmed and Siddharth Mridul said.

Additional Solicitor General Pinki Anand, appearing for the Centre and the Delhi Government, said the issue relates to the livelihood of around 50,000 erickshaw owners and they be allowed to ply them under the supervision of Delhi Police and civic agencies.
"We will not allow any illegal acts. You show us under which guidelines or norms the police will regulate them. Have a proper policy then only we can allow it as the rule of law should must prevail," the bench said.
"We are also not happy but we should not allow chaos in the capital of the country, which should be a role model city for all of us," it said.
The ASG then informed the court that the Centre will frame the draft guidelines on the issue and erickshaws can be allowed to ply for the time being till the guidelines are replaced by statutory amendments.
