According to the Meteorological Department, the air will remain poisonous in major cities of NCR including Delhi, Noida, and Ghaziabad. There is no quick relief from adverse circumstances. Even stubble burning is not being stopped in Punjab and neighboring states.

 

Delhi Environment Minister Gopal Rai said a decision will be taken after the hearing on Friday in the top court on the effects of the odd-even formula. The circular of the Directorate of Education states that the winter vacation has been postponed so that the schools are completely closed and both children and teachers can stay at home.

Gopal Rai said artificial rain will also be used to control pollution. Scientists of IIT Kanpur have told in the meeting with him that artificial rain is possible only when there is cloud or moisture in the atmosphere. Experts estimate that such a situation may arise around November 20-21. The scientists' proposal will be presented to the Supreme Court.
