Tuesday marked a turning point in NCR’s battle against smog as Minister Bhupender Yadav dissected action plans for Rohtak, Manesar, Panipat, and Karnal. Elevated PM10 and C&D waste woes in factories drew his sharpest critique.
He demanded swift financial and regulatory support, scheduling talks with Haryana’s top leadership. Uniform NCAP rollout for NCR unity was non-negotiable.
Directives flew thick: industrial census on all compliance markers to flag offenders sans OCEMS or filters. DMs drive the data hunt.
CAAQMS expansion via Sameer for instant insights. Sensitize emitters, deploy fit-for-purpose e-buses, supercharge public mobility.
Sweep streets mechanically, vacuum nooks—green fuel only. Plant locals, patch potholes pronto against dust.
Smart traffic blueprints now, near and far. C&D hubs every 5 km, processor-linked.
Own it, engage citizens, innovate smartly—said Yadav. CAQM tracks every step toward 2026 AQI cuts of 15-20%, with accountability baked in.
Assembled: CAQM head, ministry reps, NHAI, boards, local brass—for a pollution purge.
