MUMBAI: Mumbai air quality index one day after Diwali on Sunday was 148, according to data provided by the Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB), which was much lower than Delhi, which recorded an AQI of 435 that was in the severe category.
The reason that could be partly attributed to this observation was Mumbaikar’s adherence to the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) guidelines issued for Diwali, according to which the popping of firecrackers was strictly prohibited, in addition to a small relaxation provided on the day. of the festival.
Opposition leader at BMC and corporate Congress Ravi Raja said this shows how responsible the Mumbaikars are.
“We are going through a difficult phase of the coronavirus pandemic. The people of Mumbai should be thanked for adhering to the guidelines issued not to use firecrackers this year,” he said.
BJP MLA Tamil Selvan stated that the people of Mumbai have done their part in the current situation.
“People don’t have enough money to spend on cookies. They are well aware that the Maharashtra government failed to monitor their deaths and Covid cases. I appreciate this approach whereby they didn’t pop a lot of pollution-causing cookies. So credit of pollution control does not go to BMC. BMC is the most corrupt institution in the country, since it only issues guidelines but cannot implement them, “said Selvan.
