Delhi Revokes Stringent Stage III GRAP Restrictions
The Centre’s Commission for Air Quality Management (CAQM) in Delhi has taken back some strict rules that were meant to control air pollution.
These rules were part of a plan called GRAP, which has been in place since 2017.
An environmentalist named Bhavreen Kandhari is upset because the changes are confusing and might put children's health at risk.
She is part of a group called WarriorMoms, which wants clean air for kids.
Parents are frustrated because the rules keep changing, and it's hard to know how to protect their children from pollution.
The Centre’s Commission for Air Quality Management (CAQM) revoked Stage III restrictions under the Graded Response Action Plan (GRAP) in Delhi.
Environmentalist Bhavreen Kandhari expresses concern over the confusion and health risks caused by the revocation.
Kandhari is the co-founder of WarriorMoms, a collective advocating for clean air for children.
Parents are frustrated due to the frequent changes in rules regarding outdoor activities and school closures.
GRAP was introduced in 2017 as a graded emergency response mechanism based on AQI levels in Delhi.
