NEW DELHI: The Commission for Air Quality Management (CAQM) on Monday reimposed Stage-IV restrictions of the revised Graded Response Action Plan (GRAP) in Delhi-NCR after pollution levels rose to the ‘severe’ category with AQI above 400.
The order mandates a complete ban on construction and demolition activities, restrictions on industrial operations, and measures to limit vehicular emissions to address the deteriorating air quality.
Earlier in the day, the CAQM had enforced Stage-III restrictions, but the worsening situation prompted stricter interventions under Stage-IV.
