Delhi Government Advances School Sports Calendar to Avoid Winter Pollution Months
The Delhi government has revised its 2026-27 school sports calendar to conclude all outdoor events by October, avoiding the peak winter months of November to January when air pollution levels are severe to hazardous. This change follows a petition by 11 students concerned about health risks from playing sports during high pollution periods. The Delhi High Court accepted the Education Department's assurance and closed the plea, with student representatives expressing approval of the revised schedule.
