The local government in the Indian capital has said that private vehicles with odd and even registration¹ numbers will only be allowed to operate on alternate days to curb² pollution.

印度首都新德里出台私家车单双号限行政策来控制污染。

The scheme will be implemented³ from 1 January, officials said.

Earlier, officials said they would ban trucks and buses over 15 years old.

Delhi is experiencing hazardous⁴ levels of pollution due to diesel⁵ emissions⁶, construction dirt and the burning of crop stubble in farms around the city.

Air pollution causes more than 600,000 premature⁷ deaths in India each year.

In recent days, pollution levels in Delhi have reached alarming levels and on Thursday, the Delhi high court said the city resembled a "gas chamber⁸".

New car sales are soaring in India, with 1,400 extra cars taking to the capital's streets every day.

Last week India said it would require vehicles to abide⁹ by stricter emissions standards by 2019, three years ahead of a previous deadline.

Earlier this month, on the night of Diwali, the Hindu festival of lights, air pollution in Delhi reached 40 times the limit recommended by the WHO.

The capital city is not alone - India has 13 of the world's 20 most polluted cities, the World Health Organization (WHO) reported last year.
