In this special report, India Today’s Anisha Mathur details the Supreme Court’s latest hearing on Delhi’s persistent air pollution crisis. The court is now considering a novel suggestion to ease traffic congestion, a major pollution contributor, by relocating or temporarily closing nine MCD toll plazas on the city’s borders. Anisha Mathur reports the court directly questioned the authorities, asking: ‘Why is it that you are running manned toll booths instead of using technology?’ The court has directed the NHAI and MCD to explore shifting these plazas or adopting technology like RFID tags for faster movement. The report also touches upon the debate over school closures, with parents’ bodies arguing that it unfairly affects children from lower-income families who rely on midday meals and find schools to be a healthier environment than their homes.
