Delhi ka Summer Pollution: GRAP curbs hone ke baad kyun badh rahe hain dust storms, ozone aur PM10 ke levels?
मुख्य बातें
- •The Commission for Air Quality Management in NCR and Adjoining Areas lifted all GRAP restrictions in March 2026, ending Delhi’s winter pollution control phase.
- •Summer pollution in Delhi is driven by dust storms from Rajasthan, which elevate PM10 levels, and by photochemical reactions that increase ground-level ozone due to heat and sunlight.
- •Human activities such as construction, road dust, diesel generators and waste burning worsen summer air pollution alongside natural dust influx.
- •Cities are adopting measures like mechanical sweeping, water sprinkling, stricter construction norms and public transport promotion to address summer air-quality challenges.
March 2026 mein Delhi ki smog season khatam hone ke saath hi GRAP (Graded Response Action Plan) ke saare winter curbs lift ho gaye. Lekin iske saath hi naye air-quality challenges bhi shuru ho gaye, jo seasonal heat, sunlight aur dust ki wajah se hain. Commission for Air Quality Management (CAQM) in the National Capital Region and Adjoining Areas ne is withdrawal ki pukaraar ki hai, aur ye bataya hai ki Delhi ka pollution profile kaise winter se summer mein badal jaata hai.
