  News | November 02, 2022 8:45 IST

  Aaj Ki Baat । Delhi Pollution । Punjab । Parali | Delhi Pollution LIVE: Delhi की हवा में इतना जहर क्यों है। सुबह सात बजे भी लोगों को गाड़ियों की हेडलाइट जलानी पड़ी। दिल्ली के ज्यादातर इलाकों में AQI लेवल चार सौ के पार है यानि गंभीर रूप से खतरनाक लेवल का पॉल्यूशन है। इस बार दावा ये किया जा रहा था कि दिल्ली सरकार ने एक ऐसा कैमिकल तैयार करवा लिया है जो पराली को जमीन में ही गला देगा। केन्द्र सरकार ने भी पराली से छुटकारे के लिए किसानों को कई तरह की मशीनें देने की योजना बनाई थी। सरकार से उन मशीनों के लिए पैसा मिला मशीनों की खरीद भी हुई लेकिन वो मशीनें कहां गईं। पंजाब में जो पराली जल रही है उस पर काबू क्यों नहीं पाया जा सका। Punjab के कई इलाकों में India TV संवाददाताओं ने इसकी तहकीकात की। सच बेहद डराने वाला है।#delhipollution #parali #punjab #bhagwantmann #arvindkejriwal #aap #indiatv #indiatvlive
