The CPCB report has indicated that ambient air quality in most of the cities was beyond permissible standards.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;What kind of report is this? You (CPCB) have given us a half-baked data. We had asked you about vehicle density. How many vehicles are diesel and petrol? According to your report, Mumbai has a population of 11 lakhs. This is the joke of the first category.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Your report says Delhi has 245 vehicles per km. There are thousands of vehicles per km in the capital, what kind of report is this. Today, you can even see a Fiat car of 1960 on the road. People in Delhi still have their Maruti 800 driving around,&#8221; a bench headed by NGT Chairperson Justice Swatanter Kumar said while hearing a case related to air pollution.<\/p>\n<p>The tribunal also directed Delhi RTO to appear before it and inform it about the total number of vehicles in the national capital along with their break-up.<\/p>\n<p>At the outset, the NGT inquired the counsels appearing for Maharashtra and Uttar Pradesh about the most polluted city in their states.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Which city has maximum cars?
