Delhi Government to Enforce Pollution Control Norms in Buildings and Vehicles
Delhi Environment Minister Manjinder Singh Sirsa inspected pollution control measures in high-rise buildings and warned of strict action against those violating norms. Buildings over five floors and 3,000 square metres must install dust suppression systems. The government will enforce vehicle emission standards from November 1 and monitor pollution through AI-enabled systems and enforcement teams. An advance Winter Action Plan includes vehicle restrictions, increased parking charges, and work-from-home provisions to curb pollution during winter months.
