Delhi Air Pollution: Schools to resume classes in hybrid mode as GRAP Stage IV curbs return

Live Mint  

Schools in Delhi will resume classes in ‘hybrid’ mode from Thursday following the re-imposition of GRAP Stage IV curbs across the national capital region. A notice issued by the Delhi government on Wednesday evening asked schools to adopt hybrid mode with ‘immediate effect’ — in accordance with the latest Commission for Air Quality Management order. The fourth and final stage of GRAP restrictions require schools in Delhi-NCR to mandatorily conduct classes in ‘hybrid’ mode — with students attending both online and offline as required. “The AQI of Delhi for 14.01.2025 which reported as 275, exhibited a sharp increasing trend on 15.01.2025 and logging the AQI of 386 owing to dense foggy conditions and low temperatures leading to extremely low mixing height & ventilation coefficient for dispersion of pollutants,” the official order said.
