Primary schools in Delhi will be closed beginning tomorrow due to rising air pollution levels throughout the city. Arvind Kejriwal, along with Punjab Chief Minister, made the decision during a press conference on Friday, November 4.
The national capital region’s schools will remain closed until the air quality improves. Along with the schools, all outdoor activities for all grades above Class 5 will be closed.
The Delhi Chief Minister stated at the conference that they are taking all necessary steps to control the pollution situation. He also emphasised the importance of considering whether the odd-even vehicle scheme should be implemented.
