Bidhuri said due to lack of improvement in public transport, people are compelled to bring their vehicles on the roads. “Most of the pollution is spreading through road dust, yet the Delhi government has made no arrangements for road maintenance or cleaning,” he added.
“Measures like cleaning roads with machines or dust suppression are as ineffective as beating around the bush,” he said.
The leader of the Opposition said the city government claims to measure real-time pollution, but the truth is that the machines used for pollution measurement are faulty. “Additionally, the smog tower installed at Connaught Place to reduce pollution has only proved to be a publicity stunt,” he added.
