National Green Tribunal bans construction work in Delhi for a week
The National Green Tribunal (NGT) has banned all the construction work going on in the city for a week. As the pollution in Delhi is in an exorbitant stage, Schools got shut down first and then the construction work.
To decrese the smog, construction activities are halted such as brick klins and stone crushers.The particulate matter has incresed manyfold surpassing prescribed limits due to increased pollution. The Delhi government to curb the heavy smog, sprayed water on roads. These measures may address the problem temporarily but it is not a feasible one.
