GRAP-IV pollution curbs to stay in Delhi, tighter border checks needed: Supreme Court

India Today  

The Supreme Court on Monday pulled up the Delhi Police over no checkpoints at the borders of the city for checking the pollution measures and said that it was a "serious lapse". A bench, led by Justice AS Oka said that they would consider prosecution of the Delhi Police Commissioner under the Commission for Air Quality Management Act for deploying police personnel at only 23 check points, instead of all, on November 18 when Stage 4 of the Graded Response Action Plan kicked in. The court refused to relax GRAP IV measures in Delhi and directed the CAQM to consider relaxing norms for students, observing that several students cannot avail midday meals, online classes and can't access air purifiers. We will direct CAQM to prosecute the Delhi Police Commissioner," the court said.
