Centre Proposes Rs 1,150 Crore Scheme to Reduce Industrial Pollution in Delhi-NCR
The Indian government is considering a Rs 1,150 crore scheme to assist around 600 industrial units in Delhi-NCR, mainly textile and food-processing factories, in installing pollution-control equipment and upgrading facilities. Proposed by the Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs, the plan offers one-time financial support linked to investments in emission control, waste management, and cleaner fuels. This initiative aims to reduce industrial emissions contributing to Delhi's air pollution, with implementation expected to extend beyond the winter season. Final approval is pending.
