Air pollution: SC directs action against officials for 'serious lapse' in ensuring GRAP-IV curbs

The Supreme Court criticized the AAP government and Delhi police for neglecting GRAP-IV implementation, citing a lack of effort in enforcing measures and insufficient deployment of police at entry points. The Court directed action against erring officials and refused to relax restrictions until consistent AQI improvement is observed. The CAQM was ordered to provide updated AQI data for further review.
