Too many chinks in Delhi pollution fight: CAG

Hindustan Times  

The Comptroller and Auditor General’s report on Delhi’s air pollution exposed severe lapses in the city’s efforts to mitigate vehicular pollution, highlighting a lack of data on the number of vehicles and their emissions, delays in public transport expansion plans and improper placement of air quality monitors, according to officials familiar with the findings of the agency. The report also heavily criticised the city’s fitness certification system for commercial vehicles, calling it “dysfunctional” and “prone to misuse.” Despite having an automated Vehicle Inspection Unit at Jhuljhuli, 91-95% of fitness tests were still conducted manually at Burari, where “only visual inspections” were performed. It also flagged concerns over vehicles entering Delhi from neighbouring states, noting that pollution checks were being conducted at only seven out of the city’s 128 entry points. Questions about monitoring stations Another critical issue raised in the report, officials said, was the improper placement of Delhi’s continuous ambient air quality monitoring stations, which collect pollution data used to calculate the city’s daily air quality index.
