Delhi announces new pollution measures starting November 1, including a ban on certain construction activity and mandatory 50% work-from-home for government and private offices. The measures also include changes to parking charges.
The Hindu reports that non-Delhi-registered vehicles below BS-VI are barred from November 1, alongside the 50% WFH requirement for Delhi government and private offices. It also says parking charges double from the same date and that enforcement may be lenient until Deepavali.
Economic Times and India Today likewise focus on the November 1 curbs, centring on 50% WFH and the construction ban. The Economic Times also references a shorter window for curbs in its framing, while India Today presents the plan as part of Delhi’s broader approach to tackle pollution in November.
