Paresh Rawal flouts odd-even rule, drives to Parliament in even number car
Other BJP MPs who have flouted the rule on Monday include Choudhary Babulal, Prahlad Patel, Udit Raj, Ashwani Chopra etc.
New Delhi: Despite Delhi government’s earnest attempts to upkeep the odd-even formula, which is in its second phase, it testified a serious breach. On Monday, BJP MP and actor Paresh Rawal drove to Parliament in his personal car, which carried an even number plate.
Monday being an odd number day only allows car with odd number plates to ply on roads; however Rawal’s car having an even number plate flouted the order.
Delhi government has even announced a special DTDC bus service for MPs heading to Parliament in view of the odd-even scheme.
