“The Delhi government has taken various initiatives to reduce city’s air pollution. We are working on a fuel change policy, a progressive Electric Vehicle policy, installing smog guns in worse-affected areas,” he said.
“Delhi is the first city in the country to shut down its power thermal plants. Our government has shown a clear intention to eliminate pollution and brought about several steps to do so, thereby attempting to make Delhi more environment-friendly,” he said.
