“The focus is on managing respiratory distress, asthma and other breathing disorders that tend to spike during severe pollution episodes.

Government hospitals have been instructed to remain fully equipped with essential medicines, oxygen support and trained specialists to handle a sudden rise in patients. Emergency response systems have also been reinforced to cope with increased footfall during periods of extreme air pollution. Dedicated arrangements are being put in place to ensure that patients affected by poor air quality receive timely care without disruption.
