Pollution levels in the capital city have never been this high and the tribunals, though late, are finally taking notice of it.

The Supreme Court of India yesterday asked the government and the Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB) if they want Delhiites to continue suffering.

Chief Justice T.S. Thakur yesterday asked the centre about its measures to curb the pollution situation in Delhi. It is to be noted that there are just three air control rooms in Delhi at Dwarka, Dilshad Garden and Shadipur Depot, which are clearly not sufficient in the given situation.

The Supreme Court has asked centre to report back with an urgent disaster management plan in order to deal with the current environment crisis.

With the given situation that the capital is in these days, it is high time that the government and Judiciary come together to take some action.
