The Supreme Court has strongly criticized the Commission for Air Quality Management (CAQM) for its perceived inaction and "unserious" approach to Delhi-NCR's air pollution crisis. The court rebuked the watchdog for seeking a two-month adjournment on the toll plaza issue and failing to identify the primary causes of worsening air quality. The bench directed CAQM to convene an expert meeting within two weeks to identify pollution sources and submit a report, emphasizing the need for long-term solutions and public dissemination of findings.
