Illegal e-rickshaws in Delhi to be crushed within 7 days of being seized

The Delhi government’s transport department decided to scrap impounded and unregistered e-rickshaws within seven days if owners don’t apply for registration. Previously allowing 90 days, the quickened timeline aims to combat illegal e-rickshaw proliferation. These unregistered vehicles often violate traffic rules, causing congestion, and pose safety hazards. The department also flagged space needs for impounding pits and parking seized vehicles.
