Hindustan Times Haryana
|January 10, 2025
Delhi has failed to meet its initial National Clean Air Programme (NCAP) target of reducing PM10 (particulate matter having a diameter of 10 microns or less) by 20-30% by 2024 from the baseline of 2017, according to an analysis released on Thursday.
NEW DELHI:
The study, undertaken by the Centre for Research on Energy and Clean Air (CREA), analysed the past six years of NCAP-set for 131 non-attainment cities to bring down pollution levels across the country and found Delhi was only able to bring down PM10 levels by 12%.
However, neighbouring NCR cities of Ghaziabad and Faridabad recorded much steeper improvements, meeting the initial target set by the Centre. Ghaziabad recorded a reduction in PM10 concentration by 39% and Faridabad by around 25%, data showed.
