Delhi recorded a daily average AQI of 310, as per the CPCB&#8217;s daily AQI Bulletin.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;As per the dynamic model and forecasts for weather\/meteorological conditions and air quality provided by IMD\/IITM, there is a likelihood of the daily average AQI of Delhi remaining in the &#8216;very poor&#8217; category (AQI 301-400) in the coming days due to unfavourable meteorological and climatic conditions,&#8221; according to a Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change release.<\/p>\n<p>The Sub-Committee of the CAQM decided that all actions under Stage II of the GRAP for &#8216;very poor&#8217; air quality be implemented by concerned agencies in the NCR. This is to prevent further deterioration of air quality.<!--\/include_growfast.cms?pagename=article&skipcss=1potime:1-->With Stage II of GRAP now in force, an 11-point action plan is being implemented across the NCR. The plan includes mechanical\/vacuum sweeping and water sprinkling on identified roads, intensified inspections at construction and demolition sites, and proper disposal of collected dust at designated sites.<\/p>\n<p>The CAQM has urged citizens to use public transport, minimise the use of personal vehicles, and regularly replace air filters in their vehicles. Citizens are also advised to avoid dust-generating activities and open burning of solid waste and biomass. The AQI of Delhi on Monday hovered around 300 throughout the day and was recorded at 310 at 4:00 pm, as per CAQM data.<\/p>\n<p>With ANI Inputs <\/p>\n<style><![CDATA[\n    \t    #sr_widget.onDemand p, #stock_pro.onDemand p{font-size: 14px;line-height: 1.28;}\n    \t    .onDemand .live_stock{left:17px;padding:1px 3px 1px 5px;font-size:12px;font-weight:600;line-height:18px;top:9px}\n    \t    #sr_widget.onDemand .sr_desc{margin:0 auto 0;}\n    \t    #sr_widget.onDemand .sr_desc{color: #024d99;margin-top:10px;}\n    \t    #sr_widget.onDemand .crypto .live_stock .lb-icon{8px 6px 5px 3px !important}\n    \t    #sr_widget.crypto.onDemand a.text{border-bottom:1px solid #ccc;padding-bottom:5px;display:block;width:100%}\n    \t    #sr_widget.onDemand .sr_desc .text p, #stock_pro.onDemand .sr_desc .text p{font-size:12px;font-weight:400;}\n    \t]]><\/style>\n<p><!--\/article_liveblog.cms?msid=105115637&pos=botpotime:1--><\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/economictimes.indiatimes.com\/news\/india\/delhis-air-quality-remains-very-poor-aqi-at-349\/articleshow\/114484928.cms\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Delhi&#8217;s air quality remained &#8216;very poor&#8217; on Tuesday, with Air Quality Index (AQI) at 349 as per SAFAR-India.
