Now the weather has taken a turn in many states of the country. People have started feeling slight cold in the morning and evening. If we talk about the capital Delhi, pollution has troubled the people here. Delhi’s AQI remained in very poor category on Monday. AQI 327 was recorded here. However, there has been a slight improvement in AQI compared to a day earlier. If we talk about Saturday, AQI in Delhi was 255 and it reached 356 on Sunday. That means straight 101 marks more.
Diwali festival is near. As Diwali approaches, the air of the capital Delhi has started getting worse. Pollution has started increasing here again. According to the report of the Central Pollution Control Board, while the AQI of the capital was recorded at 356 on Sunday, it was recorded at 327 on Monday. It was 29 points less on Monday compared to Sunday. This was a matter of some relief.
Pollution increasing in Delhi-NCR
Many types of campaigns are being run to reduce pollution in Delhi. From time to time, water is being sprayed in areas that have become pollution hotspots. Efforts are being made to know about the factors causing pollution by monitoring the areas with high pollution through drones, so that solutions can be found to reduce it. Air pollution is increasing rapidly in NCR including Delhi.
firecrackers should be banned
The Commission for Air Quality Management (CAQM) says that the currently implemented GRAP-II should be strictly implemented to reduce air pollution in Delhi-NCR. The rules covered under this should be strictly followed. If people are negligent in doing so then action should be taken. As per the order of the Supreme Court, the states falling under Delhi-NCR should ensure washing and cleaning of roads, maximum use of anti-smog machines and a complete ban on firecrackers.
