NEW DELHI: Even as the Capital’s air quality quickly dipped into the latter half of the “very poor” category due to slow surface winds and low temperatures, the Delhi government on Wednesday announced that it will allow schools and colleges to reopen for physical classes from November 29 onwards and reopen government offices for staffers as well.
The authorities also extended the ban on the entry of trucks (excepting those for essential services) into the city till December 3 but modified the orders to allow CNG and electric trucks into the city from November 27, announced Delhi Environment Minister Gopal Rai, who on Tuesday claimed credit for the Delhi government’s policies as the city recorded its best air in 22 days — still in the poor category.
