Health emergency in Delhi: Schools closed till 5th class, 50% of employees of government-private offices to work from home


Posted on 5th Nov 2022 12:42 pm by rohit kumar

Due to the poisonous air, people's breath is again uprooted in Delhi. Here the AQI has reached 445. AQI is a measure of air quality, which is considered a very serious category. Because of this, the Delhi government has closed all the schools up to class 5. In government and private offices, 50% of the employees have been asked to work from home. Commercial construction work has been stopped in Delhi. Diesel cars and trucks have been banned. There is also a preparation for the change in market and office timings. However, EV and CNG vehicles will continue to operate. Delhi CM Arvind Kejriwal and Environment Minister Gopal Rai announced these important decisions.

 

Political retaliation as soon as the air becomes poisonous

Delhi's LG Vinay Saxena wrote a letter to Punjab CM Bhagwant Mann saying – 19% more stubble was burnt in Punjab between October 24 and November 21 this year. Immediate steps should be taken to stop it. CM Bhagwant Mann said in response that they are stopping the works of the elected government in Delhi. You are doing politics by writing a letter to me. Politics is not good on this subject. Union Agriculture Minister Narendra Tomar said - 2 lakh machines were given to the states by spending 3 thousand crores, yet such situations are worrying.

 

According to the Delhi Pollution Control Committee, the incidents of stubble burning remained at their peak in 2021 from 1-15 November. The share of stubble in Delhi's PM 2.5 increased by 38% on 4 November 2022. Delhi ranked first in the ranking of the most polluted cities in the world. At the same time, Lahore remained second and Kolkata third.

 

The odd-Even formula can reduce pollution

According to a study, closing schools and implementing the odd-even formula can reduce pollution by 15%, but that will not be enough. Environmentalists say lessons can be drawn from cities such as London, Beijing, and Mexico City to control pollution for the long term. The UN declared Mexico the most polluted city on earth. In 1989, it became the first country to ban cars and allowed cars based on number plates to reduce the number of vehicles on the roads by 20%.
