First let me tell you the law - Any vehicle not carrying a valid 'Pollution Under Control' (PUC) certificate should be challaned under Section 190 (2) of the Motor Vehicles Act. The section provides for a penalty of Rs. 1000 for the first offence and Rs. 2000 for subsequent offences.
Now I will tell you about the law breakers, not the common people but those make the law and those who are required to enforce the law and also those who think that law does not apply to them. A recent survey conducted by transport department of Delhi Government has revealed that government's vehicles - owned by Union Ministers and Delhi Givernment - are not getting mandatory pllution Under Control (PUC) certificates. The survey has found that 67% of the vehicles with Delhi Govt officials are not getting pollution checks done and do not have a 'Pollution Under Control' certificate.
None of these vehicles were ever challaned. Babus and netas break the law and get away with it. Then they say that common people are breaking the law. Does it hurt you? It hurts me. The leaders of India have failed the people.

There is a joke that rules are made for others. In India it has become a rule that rules are made only for others. Government and its babus make rules for the people. People are required to follow these rules. Any violation is punished. I think it should be declared a crime to expect government and babus to follow the rules.
quite interesting article. I would love to follow you on twitter.
