Delhi Pollution Control Committee
Delhi The Capital
� It is a heavily polluted city. During winter mornings smogspreads over the city, flights are delayed or cancelled.Traffic is chaotic. Buses and trucks belch smoke, three-wheelers rattle like machine guns and every driver honkshis horn for the sheer joy of honking.
� Delhi is the greenest capital city in the world. It has moretrees to the square kilometer than any other. There is nota time of year when some tree or the other is not in fullflower: silk cotton, flame of the forest, coral, siris,jacaranda, gulmohar, laburnum, lagerstroemia
� There are seven reasons why I love Delhi, If there areseven reasons for loving Delhi, there are more thanseventy for hating it. Kuhswant singh

Public Perception
� 35% of respondents aren’t convinced that air pollution in Delhi is an emergency.
� This includes 75% of those with children less than 10 years of age.
� In fact, 20% of all respondents feel the narrative built around it is over-hyped.
Delhi an Unique City
� Population Aprox. 20 million � Vehicular Population 11 million� Vehicle daily entering from other states 0.15million trips � Extreme climate 2◦ C to 46◦C� Rains only in Monsoon or Scanty winter rains .� 26 types of vehicle moves on same road space� Per capita income during 2017-18 estimated at RS.3,29,093.� The Average population density is 11,320 persons per sq.km. North
East District has highest population density 36,155 persons per Sq. � The total forest and tree cover area is 305.41 sq km.� Around 40 lakh commuters will use its network daily after the
completion of Phase III,� The daily average ridership in 2018-19 was 22.85 lakh, down from
25.38 lakh in 2017-18 and even after the introduction of the Pink andMagenta lines, the figure is just a little over 26 lakh.

New Initiatives by Delhi
Government:� Green Budget Implementation:
� The Government of Delhi has passed a GreenBudget wherein provisions have been madefor providing a subsidy to the following: -
Conversion of industries to PNG – Cabinethas approved the policy to offer an incentive toindustries in approved industrial areas of upto1 lakh to switch over to piped natural gas fromexisting polluting fuels on 04.09.2018 andDPCC issued office order for implementation. -Conversion of coal based Tandoors to Gasbased -

Future Action Plan of Delhi Government to Tackle the
Air Pollution Situation in Delhi:
� Augmentation of Solid Waste processing facilities by MCDs: � By increasing the capacity of Waste to Energy Plant from existing 5100 TPD to 10,300 TPD to take care of
the entire waste by establishing new units /capacity addition.
� By increasing the capacity of C & D waste recycling from existing 2650 TPD to 4650 TPD, to take care of the
entire C& D waste by establishing new units.
� By establishing smaller facilities to process Bio-degradable waste at decentralized locations of capacity
ranging from 1 TPD to 200 TPD. II. Greening of an unpaved area:
� MCDs, NDMC and PWD have proposed for Greening/paving of central verges/road berms / unpaved. III. Water Sprinkling on roads:
� MCDs, NDMC and PWD have proposed to augment regular water sprinkling on roads before sweeping by deploying a sufficient number of water tanker with sprinklers. IV. Public Transport:
� Procurement of 2000 CNG buses
� Procurement of 1000 electric buses
� Last mile connectivity by DMRC - The DMRC has contributed a subsidiary company and procuring feeder buses to serve as last mile connectivity in an organized way.
� DMRC is in process of acquiring additional metro coaches
Further Steps Required
� With special reference to Delhi , the corporate may take somesteps to improve Delhi’s environment specially the Air, they canuse their CSR funds to reduce biomass burning in unorganizedsectors may be for heating or even for cooking. The residents ofslum are still using manly biomass for cooking and heating. If theycan be provided the cleaner fuels like gas with a communitykitchen like facility where anyone can come and cook.
� The shelters may be provided with heating systems instead ofbonfires (alav).
� The corporate can adapt small area or locality to maintain thecleanliness. The parks and open areas can be adopted to maintaintheir greenery so the problem of the windblown dust can becontrolled.
� To increase the mass awareness and to convey the gravity of theproblem the corporate may take the data generated bygovernment agencies and display in public places.

� Recycling and reuse of industrial waste in environment friendlymanner would prevent burning of these waste.
� Greening of industrial estates and public places in the cityunder CSR may help to improve environment and improve airquality.
� Adoption of road stretch for mechanical cleaning and otherdust control action.
� As we all know the agricultural burning has came up as a bigenvironmental challenge CSR may be used for equippingfarmers to deal with agricultural residue and to encourageinnovative methods to control the issue.
� To encourage use of environmentally acceptable raw materialand final products.
� These initiative aims to restore ecological balance and puttingin management regimes that are sustainable for the long termin Delhi.
Are We There Yet ?
� Meeting National Ambient air qualitystandard
� Meeting World Health OrganizationGuidelines for Ambient air quality
� Seeing a blue sky!
� Proposing of effective, pragmatic andpreventive (rather thancombative)strategies
� Making accessible scientific data which iscapable of analysis by common man
