New Delhi: Delhi govt is actively exploring new technologies like drone mist sprinklers, outdoor air purifiers, and real-time air quality monitors to deal with air pollution.
Acquainting himself with advanced technologies, Delhi environment minister Manjinder Singh Sirsa reviewed demonstrations made by firms specialising in air pollution mitigation. Solutions included innovative technologies such as drone mist sprinklers, outdoor air purifiers, and the installation of air quality monitoring stations across Delhi. These solutions are being deployed in areas identified as high-priority pollution hotspots to maximise their effectiveness in air quality improvement, said the minister.
He said pole sprinklers are being installed in the New Delhi area as part of the ongoing efforts to enhance dust control measures. These technological interventions will further strengthen pollution mitigation efforts in the city.
Sirsa said, “Previous governments only made plans on paper, while our administration is taking real action on the ground. The consistent improvement in Delhi’s air quality is a testament to our relentless efforts. We will continue to explore and implement innovative solutions to ensure long-term sustainability.”
The Delhi Govt’s Action Plan 2025 includes a comprehensive approach to air pollution mitigation. Key initiatives include the expansion of electric vehicle infrastructure, strengthening of public transport with electric buses and metro connectivity, and stricter vehicular emission controls.
