The AAP, on Thursday, held protests against the remark of Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Dr. B R Ambedkar across 70 assembly segments of the national capital.
Following the release of their second list of 20 candidates for the upcoming Delhi assembly elections, Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) state convenor Gopal Rai said that volunteers and ground level workers have been given priority by the party for selection of candidates.
Recognising their invaluable efforts to keep the city clean, Rai said they have made a significant contribution to keeping Delhi clean and beautiful.
Amid Delhi's air pollution situation, Environment Minister Gopal Rai wrote to the Chief Secretary on Friday, urging personal oversight regarding the enforcement of the anti-pollution Graded Response Action Plan (GRAP).
In a review meeting over pollution held here, Rai informed that it has been decided to implement 50 per cent work from home rule across the state government departments, except those that fall under the 18 essential services category.
The decision came during a high-level meeting Rai held with the officials on the implementation of GRAP-III restrictions in the city.
Reacting to AAP leader Amanatullah Khan being granted bail by a Delhi court on Thursday in a money laundering case, Rai said, "One thing is clear with Amanatullah Khan's bail: the truth may be suppressed temporarily, but it cannot be defeated."
GRAP- III restrictions will not come into force for now as the air quality may witness improvement: Rai
He noted that in previous years, the AQI typically exceeded 400 during the November 1-15 period, with certain days even reaching the 'severe plus' category.
Stepping up efforts to curb pollution in Delhi, state Environment Minister Gopal Rai on Wednesday announced the formation of 58 teams by the Delhi Pollution Control Committee (DPCC) and Delhi State Industrial and Infrastructure Development Corporation (DSIIDC), tasked with the regular inspection of industrial units across the capital.
