These marshals will also contribute to Delhi’s fight against pollution, marking another step in their dedicated service.
On Saturday, CM Atishi stated that the Delhi government had approved the appointment of these 10,000 marshals, who will play a significant role in the battle against pollution over the next four months. She said the marshals would be crucial for monitoring pollution hotspots, preventing open burning, and following up on complaints.
The Delhi government first introduced Bus Marshals during 2017-18 to safeguard passengers, particularly women, during their commutes.
