The National Capital Region (NCR) is witnessing a troubling decline in air quality, prompting the Commission for Air Quality Management (CAQM) to take decisive action. Recently, CAQM ordered the shutdown of 16 industrial units contributing heavily to pollution in the area. This move aims to curb the escalating environmental crisis and protect public health.
Poor air quality has significant impacts on human health and the environment. For UPSC aspirants focusing on environment and ecology topics, understanding such current affairs is crucial. The CAQM’s steps reflect not only governance and policy response but also underline the governance challenges in managing urban pollution in India.
This event is an important case study for UPSC preparation under the topics of environmental governance, sustainable development, and public health management. Keeping abreast of such developments helps aspirants analyze air pollution control measures and their socio-economic implications.
