Dense toxic smog covered large parts of Delhi, pushing AQI levels into the ‘very poor’ category in areas like RK Puram and Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium. CAQM enforced GRAP Stage-IV measures as inspections revealed dust, waste accumulation, and burning across several DDA road stretches.

Delhi introduces stricter anti-pollution measures as the AQI hits the ‘severe’ category. The new curbs include a hybrid work model for offices, a ban on BS-VI vehicles, and mandatory PUC certificates for refuelling. These actions aim to tackle the city’s pollution crisis.
