KARACHI, July 19: The Sindh government on Wednesday advised the owners of two-stroke vehicles (motorcycles and rickshaws) to get their two-stroke vehicles converted into four-stroke ones by June 2007, as after this deadline all two-stroke vehicles would be impounded.
A meeting, presided over by Sindh Senior Minister for Excise and Taxation Syed Sardar Ahmed, decided that according to the decision of the Sindh cabinet, all two-stroke vehicles would be banned after June 2007 as they were the main cause of growing pollution.
After June 2007, no two-stroke vehicle would be registered, and all two-stroke vehicles plying roads would be impounded.—PPI
