delhi air pollution The Commission for Air Quality Management (CAQM) has activated Stage 3 of GRAP across Delhi-NCR as air quality touched severe levels. The move aims to curb rising pollution caused by a mix of stubble burning, vehicular emissions, and calm wind conditions.
Key measures under GRAP-3 include halting non-essential construction, deploying anti-smog guns, and intensifying road cleaning. Government agencies are also directed to ensure strict enforcement against polluting vehicles and industries.
Residents have been urged to work from home where possible and use public transport. Meteorologists warn that pollution levels may remain high for the next few days.
