The ruling highlights the vehicles’ crucial role in ensuring safety.
The Special Protection Group (SPG) appealed to the Supreme Court for a five-year extension on the registration of three armoured vehicles, after the National Green Tribunal denied their request. Concerns arose about the SPG seeking NGT approval instead of the Supreme Court, particularly amid air pollution monitoring efforts in Delhi. A hearing is scheduled for December 16.
