Delhi Plans New Buses and Pollution Control Measures
The Delhi government is taking new steps to reduce air pollution and improve public transport in the city. Officials have announced a plan to add more buses, change bus routes, and control dust levels to make the air cleaner and the roads less crowded.
One of the main steps is bus route rationalisation, which means improving bus routes so that they are more efficient and reduce unnecessary travel. This will help reduce traffic congestion and encourage more people to use public transport instead of private vehicles, which are a major cause of pollution.
The government is also planning to add more electric and CNG buses to lower emissions and make travel more eco-friendly. To control dust pollution, authorities have started using mist sprayers in different parts of the city. These sprayers help settle dust in the air, which is a big reason for poor air quality in Delhi.
Construction sites are also being monitored to ensure they follow pollution control rules. The government has also launched several awareness campaigns, asking people to switch to public transport, avoid using personal vehicles when not necessary, and follow eco-friendly practices. Special teams are checking for vehicles that cause high pollution and taking action against them.
These steps come as Delhi faces serious air quality issues every year, especially in winter. The government has promised to work continuously to make the city cleaner and healthier for its residents. With better public transport and strict pollution control measures, Delhi hopes to see fresher air and smoother travel in the coming months.
