In highly polluted cities, registered vehicles will attract the highest green tax (50% of road tax). There will be category for diesel and petrol engine vehicles, which will be subjected to green tax at different rates. Relief will be given to those who drive CNG, LPG, ethanol, electric vehicles. Such vehicles will be excluded from the Green Tax. Farming-related vehicles such as tractors, harvesters, tillers etc. are also excluded from the Green Tax. According to the proposal, the revenue from green tax will be kept in a separate account, and it will be used to tackle pollution. In addition, state-of-the-art facilities for emission monitoring are also established.<\/p>\n
