The Stage 3 anti-pollution measures of the Graded Response Action Plan (GRAP) were lifted on Friday in the Delhi-NCR area after the city experienced better air quality due to heavy rainfall.

Delhi’s air pollution levels demonstrated a downward trend, with the 24-hour average air quality index (AQI) recorded at 324 by 7 pm.

The Commission for Air Quality Management (CAQM) advised removing the restrictions after the India Meteorological Department and the Indian Institute of Tropical Meteorology forecasted additional improvement due to favorable meteorological conditions. The Stage 3 limitations were enforced on December 16.

The city and surrounding regions are anticipated to witness additional rainfall on Saturday and Sunday. Officials have stated that air quality is expected to stay within the lower range of the ‘very poor’ or ‘poor’ categories in the coming days.

GRAP-3 implemented a prohibition on non-essential construction and demolition work, the operation of industries and brick kilns using non-clean fuels, and the use of non-essential diesel generator sets. Moreover, diesel trucks transporting non-essential items in Delhi were prohibited, and the open burning of waste and biomass was restricted to reduce air pollution. Classes up to Class 5 needed to transition to hybrid mode during Stage 3.

“Considering the enhancing air quality and the potential effects of maintaining Stage-III restrictions, which greatly affect various stakeholders, the CAQM has decided to lift Stage-III measures immediately throughout NCR.” At the same time, protocols related to Stages II and I will remain in effect, observed, and improved. This is vital for averting additional decline in air quality,” The Commission stated.

Officials stated that the restrictions established in Stages 1 and 2 will continue to apply in the area.

Former Vice President Venkaiah Naidu commended Power Corridors as a commendable news magazine, affirming that it not only upholds Media Dharma but also fulfills its societal obligations. Power Corridors, as its name implies, delves into realpolitik—examining the essence of influential circles, unraveling the intricacies of political maneuvers, and exploring the pulse of the state’s affairs. However, it transcends mere power dynamics, encompassing a broader spectrum of issues beyond the confines of Delhi’s elite circles.

For PC, which is published by the Interactive Forum on Indian Economy, not only highlights the issues of the day but also throws up what ought to be the subjects that the country should be debating about. It reports about the plans, strategies, and agendas of politicians and others; it also sets the agenda for the nation.
