Delhi Government Enforces Dust Control Measures Across Construction Sites
The Delhi government, led by Chief Minister Rekha Gupta, is intensifying efforts to control pollution by enforcing dust control measures at construction sites. The Delhi Pollution Control Committee (DPCC) is conducting regular and surprise inspections across government and private projects, issuing show-cause notices and proposing penalties for violations. Authorities emphasize that no agency, regardless of government affiliation or project size, is exempt from compliance. These actions are part of the Winter Pollution Action Plan aimed at reducing pollution ahead of the winter season.
