The Delhi government plans to introduce air quality monitoring vehicles at its schools to pinpoint pollution sources and track various air quality indicators. The administrators of government schools have received instructions to collaborate with the Delhi Pollution Control Committee (DPCC) regarding the placement of these mobile air quality monitoring vehicles, according to an official statement.
These vans will offer up-to-the-minute air quality data, empowering students, teachers and staff to make informed choices regarding outdoor activities, especially on days when air quality is a concern.
Additionally, the Warrior Moms group has taken initiative by writing letters to 12 states and their respective pollution boards, advocating for the installation of AQI display monitors in all state government-operated schools, the statement mentioned.
