Delhi-NCR became ‘Gas Chamber’: Air of Greater Noida-Noida became poisonous (AQI crossed 400), big order of the government – 50% staff will work from home.

Respiratory distress:Today, i.e. Wednesday morning, was very heavy for the people living in and around Delhi. As soon as I came out of the house, I started feeling burning sensation in my eyes and sore throat. The figures of the Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB) are scary. Not only Delhi, but the air of NCR cities is now ‘Severe’ more than ‘Hazardous’ Has reached the category.

Not only for sick people, but for healthy people too, breathing such air is like smoking 20-30 cigarettes. The situation is so bad that the administration has had to take strict measures and a big order has been issued for those in private jobs.

People of Noida, be careful! (Meters crossed 400)

Today Greater Noida and Noida are at the forefront in terms of pollution. There is no air left to breathe.

• Greater Noida: 414 (extremely dangerous)
• Noida: 409 (extremely dangerous)
• Ghaziabad: 395 (dangerous)
• Delhi: 389 (serious)

Apart from this, the condition of Lucknow (362), Chandigarh (306) and Meerut (297) is also bad. If AQI crosses 400, it means that it can make even healthy people sick and can be fatal for the sick.

Now it is not just an ‘advice’ but an ‘order’: Work from Home (WFH)

Till now the government only advised that “if possible, work from home”, but from today the rules have changed.
Delhi Government has given strict instructions to District Magistrates and Police that in all private offices 50% work from home It should be implemented compulsorily. This means that offices will have to allow half of their employees to work from home so that there are fewer vehicles on the roads and people avoid poisonous air.

Strictness of GRAP-3 continues:
Along with this, restrictions under GRAP-3 are applicable and some rules under GRAP-4 have also been added.

• There is a ban on old diesel vehicles and BS-3 petrol vehicles.
• There has been a complete ban on construction and demolition.

What should you do? (doctors’ opinion)

This is not the season for carelessness. Pollution board and health experts say:

1. Mask is necessary: If you are forced to leave the house, then N95 mask Leave only after applying. Ordinary cloth mask cannot prevent this fine pollution (PM 2.5).
2. Keep children and elderly inside: Stop your morning walk or playing in the park right now. This air is causing huge damage to the lungs.
3. Keep home air clean: at home if possible Air purifiers with HEPA filters Use and keep windows and doors closed.

Take care of yourself and your family, because the chances of getting relief seem slim right now.
