Delhi CM unveils plan to combat winter pollution

New Delhi, October 4

To combat air pollution in Delhi, CM Arvind Kejriwal today announced a 10-point “winter action plan” that focuses on dust control, using Pusa bio-decomposer, installing smog towers and checking waste burning and vehicular emissions.

He also urged neighbouring states to retrofit thermal power plants in NCR areas with new technology and ensure the use of CNG-operated vehicles and cleaner fuel in industries. He claimed the Centre and neighbouring states have not done anything to check stubble-burning. — TNS
