As Delhi experiments with Odd Even formula to curb rising air pollution in the city, the early response has given good hopes for its success. Plenty of positive response were received on the first day of its introduction.
While some said it was due to Friday being a holiday for many, who were away on New Year vacation, the traffic on Delhi roads were still considerably less.
Here are how people on social media reported about the impact of Odd-Even formula on Delhi’s streets.
