This is the outcomes we get, even after high level follow ups and activities carried out for optics to ensure @LtGovDelhi visit to Okhla goes off smoothly. This road stretch and beyond is used by tens of thousands daily and yet neglected by @DelhiPwd and @MCD_Delhi @CPCB_OFFICIAL
This video illustrates the post intervention and that too a bit of a shoddy job, despite the high visibility this has got. You can imagine what this means for the average problem that gets reported in Delhi if this is the case when there is active follow up and pressure (+)
The challenges of poor governance and lack of accountability of agencies is evident in an example I illustrate in the two videos below.They are slightly long but I hope you persist and see how this plays out. Each is the first half of the respective videos - 140 sec limit (+)
With primary schools closed, a poor Early Warning System (EWS)and recommendations has meant that the poor students from the economically weaker section (EWS) are bearing the brunt of poor AQ- staying at home and trying to learn online. How many years do they grapple with this (+)
Today again the CAQM will probably meet and I hope they don't take a decision on the back of the 'improvement' that our scientists will showcase over the last 10 hrs. The air is still unbreathable. Blaming Punjab when fires are <50% of 2022 (+)
Delhi has been at Severe + for nearly 72 hrs and Emergency plus for the good part of the last 48 hrs. The CAQM guidelines clearly say that the measures must be adopted 3 days in advance, based on forecast expectations, which have let them down(+)
The CAQM met on 3 Nov in the late afternoon and was advised to not implement GRAP IV - the toughest restrictions as the science was indicating that things 'were getting better'. That was a poor decision. If indeed led by science, our scientific agencies have a long way to go (+)
Before vs After - Abortions 74 and 75 at KG's clinic for expectant blue-rock pigeons. As my clinic enters its #AmritKaal , am open to new ideas to draw more clients and continue striving to make Delhi pest-free.
I spent 3 hours today bringing DSIDC, MCD and PWD officials to address this problem in Okhla Phase III - rampant C&D dumping, local @BJP4India neta in Shyam Nagar indulging in it too. PWD insists it was handed over to MCD and wants me to dig up the paper work @DPCC_pollution
youtube.com/watch?v=YaahvuKD… this is already a reality @crc8 .. not futuristic at all :)
Two sides of the same stretch - one to ensure G20 movement happens without a hiccup and the other to ensure Delhi residents get their daily dose of the lived experience of our cities. This just ahead of Govindpuri metro. @PMOIndia @CPCB_OFFICIAL
