Delhi Environment Minister Imran Hussain on Monday called a meeting to review the present air quality status and implementation of the recent directions issued by the courts.
The concentration of different pollutants, especially particulates, and their trend along with the fog was discussed. The concentration of particulate matter is lower than the values observed in 2016 during the period between January 1 to January 29 this year, the government said in a statement.
Mr. Hussain stressed on the need for surveillance and vigil by agencies in order to control Ambient Air Quality. The Minister also observed that since the night temperature is going down, garbage and biomass burning must be curbed.
