Delhi Air Pollution: In view of increasing cases of toxic air in Delhi, the Supreme Court has ordered to close all schools up to 12th and start online classes. Along with this, the Supreme Court has expressed strong displeasure with the Delhi government over the delay in implementing the Group-4 restrictions in the National Capital Region i.e.

Delhi-NCR. The court also directed the Atishi government to take necessary steps to improve the Air Pollution Level (AQI).

After the Supreme Court’s stern tone, questions have started to arise whether the Delhi government will once again implement work-from-home and odd-even rules in the national capital. When Gopal, who was the Minister of Environment in the Atishi government, came to hold a press conference at 4 pm on Monday, the same questions were on everyone’s mind.

Gopal Roy said in the press conference, ‘The whole of North India is in the grip of severe pollution today. Elderly people are having trouble breathing. Children’s schools have to be closed. Due to this, people’s lives are being adversely affected. Today in North India AQI recorded 477 in Bahadurgarh, 468 in Bhiwani, 472 in Churu, 448 in Gurugram.

Gopal Rai blamed the Center.

The Environment Minister of the Delhi Government also said, ‘The effect of pollution is becoming fatal in the whole of North India. We have to say with great sadness that the central government is sleeping in such a bad condition. When half of the country is in the grip of pollution. In such a situation, the Center should work together with all the governments, but it is dangerous for the Union Environment Minister to sleep, he said that BS-4 vehicles are being driven all around in Delhi. If the Center had made a proper action plan, the people of Delhi and the country would not have to see such a situation.

What did Gopal Roy say about odd-even and working from home?

Gopal Roy said, ‘Angoor-4 has been implemented in Delhi. We have held a meeting with the authorities and given instructions to strictly implement it. Along with this, he said, ‘I demand that the central government should hold an immediate meeting and save the entire North India from pollution.’

When asked about working from home at a press conference in Delhi, Gopal Roy said that he will take a decision after reading the Supreme Court order. On the odd-even implementation, he said, ‘We are monitoring now, we will take whatever steps are necessary.’

Is artificial rain the solution to pollution?

On this question, Gopal Roy said, ‘Experts say that this is not a solution. If you are asking any question then let us tell you that we have to do this and we have to take permission from the central government. But a decision will be taken when the meeting is held. Scientists at IIT Kanpur will tell how it will happen, we will tell about the cost, but we have not been telling for the last two and a half months.

Considering the serious situation of air pollution in Delhi and nearby areas, the government has decided to close all primary schools until further orders. To ensure that children’s education is not disrupted, the Delhi government has decided to shift all primary schools to online mode.

Chief Minister Atishi Marlena has given this information through a post on X. Let us tell you that the AQI level (Air Quality Index) in Delhi has remained above 400 for the past few days. Due to this, problems like irritation in eyes and difficulty in breathing have started appearing due to exposure to open air. Along with this, implementation of GRAP-3 in Delhi NCR has also been announced. It will come into effect from November 15, under which several strict restrictions will be imposed.

Chief Minister Atishi announced today on X, “Due to rising pollution levels, all primary schools in Delhi will conduct online classes till further orders.” Atishi also holds the Education Department. Air quality in the national capital remained in the ‘severe’ category for the second day in a row, prompting authorities to implement stricter anti-pollution measures. These restrictions will come into effect from Friday.

After Chief Minister Atishi Marlena directed the closure of primary schools in view of increasing air pollution, the Education Directorate of Delhi Government has also issued an order in this regard. The Directorate of Education has issued an order to close schools due to pollution. Until further orders, physical classes in schools up to class V will remain closed. Instructions have been issued for conducting online classes. This decision was taken after CAQM implemented GRAP 3 due to increased pollution.
