Defer half marathon, IMA tells HC

November 15, 2017 01:12 am | Updated 01:12 am IST - New Delhi

Terming the air quality in the Capital as ‘poor and unsafe’, the Indian Medical Association (IMA) on Tuesday urged the Delhi High Court to pass directions to postpone the Delhi Half Marathon, which is scheduled to be held on November 19

The court issued notices to the Delhi government, pollution control panel and the organisers of the event and sought their reply by November 16, the next date of hearing.

The organisers said they will present their case with “full facts” and hoped the court will give a verdict in their favour.
