<br /> The <keyword id="146133" type="ORGANIZATION" weightage="100" keywordseo="National-Green-Tribunal">National Green Tribunal</keyword> today refused to modify its order banning plying of diesel vehicles which are over 10 years old in Delhi-NCR. <br /><br /> Refusing to modify its order banning vehicles which are more than 10 years old in Delhi-NCR, a bench headed by National Green Tribunal Chairperson Justice <keyword id="159838" type="PERSON" weightage="100" keywordseo="Swatanter-Kumar">Swatanter Kumar</keyword> said it was for the <keyword id="6354952" type="ORGANIZATION" weightage="100" keywordseo="Delhi-Government">Delhi government</keyword> and the concerned authorities to decide on the issue of challaning such vehicles or not. <br /><br /> The green panel said the ban has been upheld by the <keyword id="6354977" type="ORGANIZATION" weightage="100" keywordseo="Supreme-Court">Supreme Court</keyword> and the Tribunal cannot go against the apex court decision. <br /><br /> Additional Solicitor General (ASG) <keyword id="17453" type="PERSON" weightage="100" keywordseo="Pinky-Anand">Pinky Anand</keyword>, appearing for <keyword id="6404450" type="ORGANIZATION" weightage="100" keywordseo="Ministry-of-Road-Transport-and-Highways">Ministry of Road Transport and Highways</keyword>, told the bench that various truck operators were mulling strike and protesting against the governments of Delhi, Haryana and UP for not issuing fitness certificates to diesel vehicles more than 10 years old. <br /><br />

	Seeking modification of the ban order, the ASG said that there were possibilities of strike and consequently the essential services for public would be at stake. 
<br /><br />

	The refusal to issue fitness certificate to vehicles in Delhi and NCR came after the Tribunal (NGT) April 7 order through which it had held that all diesel vehicles which are more than 10 years old will not be permitted to ply in Delhi-NCR. 
<br /><br />

	Later, the Supreme Court also dismissed the plea challenging the Tribunal's order prohibiting diesel vehicles that are over 10 years old from plying in the national capital.

<p><div class="KonaFilter image-container display-table float_right"><div><div class="image on-image"></div><p></p></div></div>An engagement ring can <a href="http://www.businessinsider.com/how-to-buy-engagement-ring-2016-12">set you back several thousand dollars</a>, so getting it right is crucial.</p><p>Many jewelers offer after-purchase resizing, for a small fee - or even for free - but if you don't get your partner's ring size right, it can put a real hitch in your perfect proposal.</p><p>The most obvious way to find out your partner's ring size? Ask them. But if you're banking on the element of surprise, you might want to be a little sneakier.</p><p>A few things to keep in mind:</p><p><span>  <strong>It's better to err on the side of too big than too small.</strong> Not only is it easier to shrink a ring than enlarge it, but being unable to fit the ring on their finger when you ask can be sorely disappointing. Plus, it needs to fit over their knuckles, and hands change size with warmth, cold, pregnancy, or even time of day.</span></p><p>  <strong>It's easier to resize a ring with a plain band</strong> than one with stones embedded all the way around, so the more stones you have, the more you'll want to get it right the first time.</p><p>  <strong>"The wider the band, the tighter the fit,"</strong> notes Emily Duke of DiamondEnvy.com at <a href="https://www.theknot.com/content/ring-size-chart-how-to-measure">The Knot</a>. She recommends sizing up by a quarter to a half size if you're seeking a wider band.<span><br /></span></p><p>Now, to figure out the ring size without your partner noticing, try:</p><h2>1. Taking, tracing, or trying on a ring</h2><p>If your partner regularly wears rings, you have a few options. When they take a ring off, you can:</p><p>  <strong>Bring it to a jeweler.</strong> Note which finger they wear it on, though - most people don't wear a ring on their left ring finger before getting engaged, so the chances this ring will be a perfect fit are slim. However, it can give your jeweler an idea of the size of their hands. If in doubt, go bigger. </p><p>  <strong>Trace it.</strong> Only have until they get out of the shower before it's gone? Grab a paper and pencil, and trace the ring. Then you can measure it using an online ring sizing guide like one from <a href="http://image.brilliantearth.com/blogprod/news/wp-content/uploads/2016/01/12192856/BrilliantEarthringsizer1.pdf?_ga=1.268099590.986701063.1482950710">Brilliant Earth</a>, <a href="https://www.theknot.com/content/ring-size-chart-how-to-measure">The Knot</a>, or <a href="https://www.zales.com/home/ringsizechart.jsp">Zales</a>. <a href="http://www.ringsizes.co/">Ringsizes.co</a> has an international conversion chart that converts millimeters and inches into sizes in different countries.</p><p>  <strong>Try it on your own hand.</strong> Use a pen to mark where it fits you, or take a picture to bring to the jeweler.</p><p>  <strong>Press it into a bar of soap.</strong> It sounds a little weird, but <a href="https://www.hamra.com/blog/find-her-ring-size/">Hamra Jewelers</a> points out that it's an easy way to make a model of a ring to bring to your jeweler. Just make sure to wipe all the soap off before you return it!</p><h2>2. Asking one of their friends</h2><p>Find out her ring size without spoiling the surprise by enlisting the help of her friends or family members, suggests Jessica Anand, <a href="http://www.brilliantearth.com/news/how-to-find-out-her-ring-size-without-her-knowing/">a jewelry expert at Brilliant Earth</a>, an ethically sourced jeweler:</p><p style="padding-left: 30px;">"A great way to find out her ring size is to ask one of her friends. Friends occasionally have this insight! And, if the friend doesn't know right away, she can be the one to ask (nonchalantly).</p><p style="padding-left: 30px;">"Even better, ask the friend to take your girlfriend engagement ring shopping 'for fun.' Have her get professionally sized and ask her friend to report back to you."</p><h2>3. Having them try on a friend's ring</h2><p><div class="KonaFilter image-container float_right"><div class="image on-image"></div><p></p></div>You can also get an idea of sizing by having them try on another friend's ring, <a href="http://www.brilliantearth.com/news/how-to-find-out-her-ring-size-without-her-knowing/">Anand says</a>:</p><p style="padding-left: 30px;">"If one of your partner's friends is engaged, ask her friend to let your girlfriend try on the ring. This will put you in a ballpark size range to start out with.</p><p style="padding-left: 30px;">"You can also use this as an opportunity to ask what she thought of her friend's ring (in private) and try to do a little sleuthing as to what style of ring she would like for herself."</p><h2>4. Measuring their finger while they sleep</h2><p>If your partner is a deep sleeper, you can wrap a piece of string or thin strip of paper around their finger and mark where it meets with a pen, suggests <a href="http://www.wikihow.com/Figure-out-Her-Ring-Size">Wikihow</a>. Don't use a measuring tape, cautions <a href="http://www.today.com/style/ring-doesn-t-fit-here-s-easiest-way-find-your-t101694">Today</a>, because the tape's thickness could lead to an inaccurate reading. Then, compare the measurement to an online sizing chart like the ones noted above, or bring it straight to the jeweler. Be careful not to pull it too tight. </p><p>Tread lightly, because if they wake up, you're toast.</p><h2>5. Compare your fingers to theirs</h2><p>It seems inexact, but hey: <a href="http://www.businessinsider.com/buy-custom-engagement-ring-2016-12">It worked for Business Insider editor Dave Smith</a>. If you know how your partner's hand compares to yours (is your pinky about the same size as their ring finger?) you can make a decent estimate at the jeweler's. If you don't want to rely on memory, consider snapping a "romantic" photo of your intertwined hands. Just make sure to get their left.</p><h2>6. Pretending you're buying a ring for someone else</h2><p>Admittedly, this method is pretty transparent if you aren't the type to buy rings as gifts for your friends and family. However, if you're willing to commit to the charade, you can have your partner help you shop for a (cheaper!) ring you plan on "gifting" someone else. Have them try it on to gauge size, suggests <a href="https://www.hamra.com/blog/find-her-ring-size/">Hamra Jewelers</a>, and you'll know exactly what size you need. If you're really on your game, you'll call ahead to let the jeweler in on your plan.</p><p>If you're still getting nowhere, <a href="http://www.brilliantearth.com/ring_size/">Brilliant Earth</a> points out<span> that the average woman has a ring size between 6 and 6.5, with the dominant hand usually slightly bigger in size.</span></p><p>The bottom line: You're making a big purchase here, so you'll want to get it right.</p>    <div class="margin-top">        <h3>NOW WATCH: <a href="http://www.businessinsider.com/ways-earn-passive-income-website-blog-accounting-teaching-lessons-2016-12">8 great ways to earn passive income</a></h3>        <div>            <div>        <div class="ooyala-video-player" data-video-autoplay="false" data-video-id="tha2pqODE6Axwag4VBHZV0f4kBiC7jC7" data-player-variable="ooyalapopvideo" id="ooyalaplayer_popvideo" style="width:1280px;height:720px"></div>        </div>        </div>            </div>
