India decided to skip implementation of BS-IV norms and will implement BS-VI norms from 2022. 2021 for all vehicles 3. Implementation of new norms require changes in the engines as well as in the fuel. Which of the statements given above is/are correct? A. 1 only B. 1 and 2 only C. 3 only D. 2 and 3 only
Correction - We will be skipping BS-V norms to BS- VI ----> By April 1, all of India moves to Bharat Stage IV (BS-IV) vehicular emission norms, already in place in several parts

I hope it is tribal welfare minister. Then it's a direct constitutional provision. It's a special power of the governor of Madhya Pradesh, Jharkhand, Chattisgarh and Odisha. Earlier Bihar was also in the list, but after the formation of Jharkhand, it was removed.
