Extremely satisfied with the response to the Odd- Even formula, the Delhi Government has decided to continue with the same.

The decision in this regard was taken at a meeting chaired by Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal.

"Odd even formula will come back. Detail reports has been sought for better public transport exemption... There was no discussion on two-wheelers, as there is no available alternative public transport," said Transport Minister Gopal Rai.

Earlier, the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) Government had organised an event to thank the people of Delhi for making the odd-even experiment, which ended on January 15, a 'success'.

Kejriwal and Rai had expressed their gratitude towards Delhiites for making the first phase of the plan successful.

"It was a tough call, but the people of Delhi stood by it, followed it," said Kejriwal.

"I congratulate the people of Delhi from the bottom of my heart," he said.
