‘Dust-Free Delhi’ Drive
Summary: The ‘Dust-Free Delhi’ initiative, launched by Lieutenant Governor V K Saxena, aims to reduce air pollution in Delhi, particularly before winter when pollution worsens. The main focus is on road dust, stubble burning, vehicle emissions, construction dust, and solid waste. Key agencies involved include the MCD, PWD, and DJB, with oversight by a high-level task force led by P K Mishra, Principal Secretary to the Prime Minister. The drive involves removing mud and silt from roads and addressing multiple pollution sources through a coordinated strategy to improve air quality and reduce health risks.
