Twenty categories of vehicles have been exempted from the odd-even scheme which will be applicable for 15 days in the national capital starting 1 January 2016, according to a report by The Indian Express.

The 20 categories include:

  • Vehicles of SPG protectees
  • Vehicles bearing diplomatic corps registration numbers
  • Those on way to hospital for a medical emergency should carry proof
  • Vehicles of the physically challenged

An appeal was filed in the Delhi High Court against the implementation of the scheme, but on Wednesday, the HC refused to issue a stay on it.
