Odisha Reduces Pollution Under Control Certificate Fine to Rs 6,000
The Odisha government has reduced the penalty for driving without a valid Pollution Under Control Certificate (PUCC) to Rs 6,000. This decision follows public demand for a reduction in the previously proposed fines. The new fine amount is significantly lower than initial proposals, aiming to ease the burden on vehicle owners while still encouraging compliance with pollution control norms.
