Abstract: Indian cities are facing the problem of severe air pollution and vehicles are a major source. The economically vibrant cities like Delhi, Bengaluru, Chennai, Hyderabad, Mumbai provide numerous job opportunities and hence have a large vehicle population. These cities thus contribute the largest share in emissions of pollutants. Other growing cities like, Jaipur, Pune, Coimbatore are also emitting a lot of pollutants.
