Air quality declines to poor, GRAP stage 1 restrictions implemented
New Delhi: Delhi's air quality deteriorated to the 'poor' category on Saturday with an Air Quality Index (AQI) of 209, forcing Commission for Air Quality Management (CAQM) to invoke stage I of the Graded Response Action Plan in Delhi-NCR. The AQI was 161 in the 'moderate' category a day earlier. The measures under stage I are preventive and focus on the stringent enforcement of existing guidelines. It has been implemented in Delhi-NCR for the seventh time this year. GRAP's stage I was in force for the entire winter season (2024-25), with the CAQM lifting it finally on March 3. However, it was again enforced in NCR from March 7 to March 15, followed by the periods from March 24 to 29; from April 2 to May 1; from May 16 to 18 and May 21 to 23. After the rain spell has been over, the air quality deteriorated in the absence of strong winds blowing in the city. Experts said ground-level ozone is one of the lead pollutants now. "The AQI of Delhi has shown an increasing trend. Further, the forecast by IMD/IITM also predicts AQI to mainly remain in the 'poor' category in the coming days. Actions under Stage-I of GRAP shall be implemented, monitored, and reviewed by all the agencies concerned in the entire NCR to ensure that the AQI levels do not slip further," said CAQM. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Giao dịch vàng CFDs với mức chênh lệch giá thấp nhất IC Markets Đăng ký Undo It asked all agencies to keep strict vigil and intensify measures of the GRAP schedule.
