Air quality panel unveils tougher measures to combat air pollution in Delhi-NCR

India Today  

The Commission for Air Quality Management in National Capital Region and Adjoining Areas convened its 19th meeting on Thursday, focusing on urgent strategies to tackle air pollution in the region. The commission also authorised Member-Secretaries of Pollution Control Boards in NCR states to prosecute offenders violating dust and air pollution regulations. The empowerment aims to address recurrent dust pollution by enabling swift legal action, including the closure of non-compliant sites and imposing substantial environmental compensation penalties. The Commission also assessed enforcement actions against polluting industries and C&D projects, urging state pollution control boards to intensify their inspection efforts.
