Need To Check Air Pollution In Delhi. on 27 February, 2015
Sixteenth Loksabha an> Title: Need to check air pollution in Delhi.
SHRI MULLAPPALLY RAMCHANDRAN (VADAKARA): I wish to draw the attention of this august House to an urgent matter of public importance regarding the alarming degree of pollution in the Capital city of Delhi. According to expert studies, Delhi is the most polluted city across the globe. We have reports of the foreign Government taking urgent steps to protect the staff of their missions at Delhi from the disastrous effect of pollution. We have launched the Swachch Bharat programme and we have directions from the Court on the issue. But in spite of everything, there is no improvement whatsoever in the matter. I call upon the Government to take immediate action so that the health and lives of the hapless people of Delhi can be saved. Madam, I seek your kind indulgence in this very important matter.
HON. SPEAKER:
Shri B. Vinod Kumar is allowed to associate with the matter raised by Shri Mullapally Ramachandran.
