The Delhi Pollution Control Committee (DPCC) working towards controlling air pollution in the national capital Delhi has now shown speed towards filling important posts lying vacant. The move has been taken by the Supreme Court allegedly after instructions to reprimand the institution in this case and take quick action. The capacity of DPCC was being affected due to vacant posts, especially in important works of air quality monitoring and control.
DPCC is an important institution of the Government of Delhi whose main task is to monitor the level of air and water pollution in the city, detect its causes and to implement policies to reduce pollution. For a long time, there were reports that various necessary posts, such as scientific officers, environment engineers, laboratory assistants and employees associated with enforcement were running vacant. The direct impact of these vacancies was on the DPCC’s ground monitoring and reporting capacity, causing the pollution to control effectively.
Fast after intervention of Supreme Court
The Supreme Court had taken cognizance of the serious situation of pollution and its solution. The court sought information on the availability of steps being taken from various government agencies and DPCC to reduce air pollution, especially the necessary manpower. According to reports, the court had emphasized on the immediate filling of important posts, so that institutions like DPCC could efficiently discharge their duties.
After this strictness of the Supreme Court, DPCC has come into action and is going to start the process of making new appointments on these vacant posts soon. It is expected that new appointments will increase the efficiency of DPCC and they will be able to work more strongly to control pollution. In particular, it will help identify and curb the sources of pollution at the ground level.
This step is being seen as a positive initiative to improve Delhi’s deteriorating air quality. However, it will not be enough to fill only the posts; It is also important to ensure that the appointed personnel carry out their actions with full loyalty and ability.
