Delhi Environment Minister Gopal Rai has written to the transport ministers of Haryana, Uttar Pradesh, and Rajasthan, requesting them to stop allowing diesel buses from their states to enter Delhi as the air quality in the national capital worsens.
The implementation of a 27-point action plan by Delhi and its neighboring regions is intended to mitigate pollution and stabilize the deteriorating air quality in the city.
The NCR plunges into a severe air quality crisis during winters every year, with stubble burn in the neighboring states of Haryana and Punjab among the major contributors.
Of the total 36 sub-divisions, nine have recorded excess rains, including Rajasthan (74%), Gujarat (68%), Maharashtra, Tamil Nadu, and coastal Andhra Pradesh.
Arunachal Pradesh and neighboring states face significant rainfall deficits, with Arunachal at 95% below normal and Assam and Meghalaya both 86% less, affecting temperatures and local conditions.
Central and eastern Europe are devastated by record rainfall and flooding from Storm Boris, causing widespread destruction. Rivers are overflowing and submerging towns that have prompted evacuations. The World Weather Attribution Network found that the likelihood and intensity of major flooding events in Europe were increased due to climate change.
Experts anticipate that Cyclone Yagi’s remnants could develop into a deep depression due to its strong organization and intense convection. A 72-hour alert has been issued for Bihar, West Bengal, Jharkhand, and North Odisha in anticipation of significant rainfall and associated risks.
