Following cyclone Fengal, the union territory received 48% rainfall which was unexpected, forcing the closure of schools and colleges on Dec 3, said Chief Minister N Rangaswamy.
The System of Air Quality and Weather Forecasting and Research (SAFAR) tests showed that the air quality had deteriorated again on the morning of Nov 26, rising to 396.
The proposed annual climate funding of ₹25.3 lakh crore ($300 billion) falls significantly short of the ₹109.7 lakh crore ($1.3 trillion) demanded by developing nations for urgent climate action.
In the face of deteriorating air quality in the nation's capital, Delhi University has decided to switch to online classes until Nov 23 and Jawaharlal Nehru University until Nov 22.
The Commission for Air Quality Management (CAQM) advised Delhi and NCR governments to consider enabling public, municipal, and private offices to operate at 50% capacity, with the rest working from home. The central government may also allow its employees to work remotely. Until further notice, all schools will continue classes online.
The Delhi government and NCR states will enforce a ban on BS-III gasoline and BS-IV diesel (four-wheelers) in Delhi and its surrounding areas, including Gurugram, Faridabad, Ghaziabad, and Gautam Buddh Nagar, as per an order from the Commission for Air Quality Management.
The System of Air Quality and Weather Forecasting and Research (SAFAR) predicts that 'severe' air quality will persist on Nov 14, with 'very poor' air quality expected to prevail from Nov 15 to 16.
