Air pollution in the capital has reached dangerous levels. In such a situation, the fourth phase of the Graded Response Action Plan (GRAP) will come into effect from Monday. This will be effective from 8 am. Seeing the increasing air pollution, the Commission for Air Quality Management (CAQM) has taken this decision. In such a situation, there is a restriction on the movement of heavy vehicles. However, trucks carrying essential goods will be allowed to enter. On the other hand, instructions have been issued for 50 percent of the employees in government and private offices to work from home. Also, the governments of Delhi and NCR states are recommended to conduct online education from class 6th to 12th. On the other hand, in view of the increasing pollution level in Delhi, the Delhi government has decided to run classes 6th to 11th online. Under the decision, classes 10th and 12th will continue as before. Online classes will continue till further orders.
