In a bid to improve the air quality index (AQI) in the National Capital Region (NCR), the state-owned National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) is taking measures for dust control at national highway construction sites.
The NHAI, under the directions issued by the Commission of Air Quality Management (CAQM), has set up a dust and control management centre to curb dust at national highway construction sites to monitor its effective implementation.
With a dip in air quality parameters in Delhi-NCR, CAQM has invoked actions as envisaged under the Graded Response Action Plan (GRAP).
