In order to get relief from air pollution, Delhi Government on Monday told Supreme Court that it is ready to impose a complete lockdown in the capital of the country.
Delhi government also suggested to the Apex Court that it would be meaningful if complete lockdown is implemented across the NCR areas in neighbouring states.
Following the action after being nudged by the Supreme Court to curb the rising air pollution in the national capital, Delhi’s air quality on Monday witnessed marginal improvement as the air quality in the capital city reached the lower end of the ‘very poor’ category with Air Quality Index (AQI) at 318 (overall), according to the System of Air Quality and Weather Forecasting And Research (SAFAR).
