With the rising air pollution, the Delhi government announced the closure of classes in the primary school. "Due to rising pollution levels, all primary schools in Delhi will be shifting to online classes, until further directions," Delhi CM Atishi said in a post on X.
The move to close all primary schools and shift classes to online mode has been taken after the central pollution panel imposed restrictions under the third stage of the GRAP in Delhi-NCR, banning all construction and demolition activities and restricting the entry of certain vehicles in Delhi.
