AQI very high in Asansol, alarming rise of air pollution in past two days
With the onset of winter, Asansol's Air Quality Index (AQI) has deteriorated significantly, with air pollution levels reaching alarming levels in recent days.
Delhi BJP president Manoj Tiwari on Friday blamed the Kejriwal government for the toxic haze and deterioration in air quality in the capital over the last four days.
He alleged that situation is worse than what existed before the introduction of the CNG vehicles in Delhi.
“It is surprising that while the scheme to implement car rationing system is being announced on 9 November, on ground it will be implemented four days later. The National Green Tribunal (NGT) has raised questions on the odd-even system. The Kejriwal government should tell about what draft policy it has made as anti-pollution measures, especially for situation like this,” he said.
Meanwhile, the Delhi Congress also slammed the Kejriwal government for the rise in air pollution in the capital.
