A CNG propelled Auto rickshaw plying on New Delhi road
The Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) fuel system which was implemented strictly in the National Capital Region (NCR) in 2004 after the Supreme Court's order was a great success. The implemented CNG Fuel system helps greatly in decreasing the pollution level in the NCR region. All the public transport vehicles like buses, auto rickshaws etc... plying in NCR roads had adopted the CNG system. Due to this success, the CNG system has become a role model for other cities which are struggling to control air pollution. Now a question arises that when will other Indian metros will shift to CNG system. Especially Chennai which is facing high air pollution problems mainly due to motor vehicles.Though the cost required for the shifting is higher, CNG costs RS.25 per kg when compared to petrol of Rs.50 per kg.
