Dilli wallahs bodies have reduced capacity due to toxic air
Because of the toxic air I think most people residing in Delhi and NCR cities have a problem. Their bodies and lungs have less capacity to handle pollution now and are falling sick more easily than say in 2016-17

That is the only way 4 in 10 families could have visited a doctor for one of the family members as found in survey.
So happy that finally important issues like air pollution in Delhi are finding international audiences through Bloomberg writing about this survey of our circle.
Kudos to LC Manager. Hope I can give kudos to government (central and state) for reducing pollution in coming years. They have failed us for a decade already. more

We the people writing here or reading this aren't real voters Real voters who are illiterate care a damn about their representatives Their main concern is freebies offered in competition by evey political leader Wannabe leaders do go to slums just before elections to convince huge numbers of people who look forward to elections and freebies Give poor people quality education and skills and dignity of labor and make poor people self sufficient for the family and not depend upon leaders who wish poor people to remain poor all through their lives more

https://www.dailypioneer.com/2024/page1/overaged-vehicles-choking-ncr.html The National Capital Region (NCR) still has over one 1.06 Crore ‘overage’ vehicles (End of Life (EoL) running on the roads illegally and adding to the pollution. Of them, only 26,064 vehicles have been seized in 2023 and 6011 till September 2024. Data shows there are 60,14,493 such vehicles in Delhi. Of them, only 24,706 have been impounded so far. A survey by the Delhi government in October estimates there are 15,0000-2,00000 EoL vehicles still on roads. An estimated 1.1 million vehicles enter and exit Delhi daily, further worsening the air quality. The traffic congestion caused by this vehicle influx also intensifies pollution, particularly nitrogen oxides (NOx), which account for 81 per cent of NOx pollution in Delhi. Data shows that during peak traffic hours (5 pm - 9 pm), when average traffic speed drops to 15 km/h, NO2 levels are 2.3 times higher than noon levels (12 pm - 4 pm) when traffic speed averages 21 km/h. These congestion-related emissions worsen air quality, especially during winter when inversion layers trap pollutants close to the ground. According to the Ministry of Road and Transport, Haryana has over 27.50 lakh while Uttar Pradesh has over 12.38 lakh such vehicles. Rajasthan has 6.06 lakh such vehicles. Transport department Officials said that there are a large number of EoL vehicles plying on the roads, causing traffic snarls here. In an order to Delhi, the Commission has directed that EoL vehicles should be denied fuel at petrol pumps and more importantly, immediate legal action should be taken against such vehicles, including impounding and further disposal in accordance with RVSF Rules, 2021 and other extant policies of the respective State Governments and the GNCT Delhi. more
