This Tribunal has also dealt with the issue in several cases including the matter dealing with 122 \u2018non-attainment cities\u2019 in the Country where the air quality is beyond prescribed norms and on the subject preventing \u2018crop residue burning.<\/p>\n

“Air pollution is source of diseases and threat to life.”<\/strong><\/p>\n

Tribunal adding to the above, stated that the present situation of severe air pollution “is not creation of one day. It is continuous negligence and apathy of statutory authorities in enforcing the law. While remedial action may continue to be taken in the best possible manner, there is urgent need to have proper planning to address the gaps in existing enforcement strategies and existing undesirable situation.”<\/span><\/p>\n

The Bench further held that after interaction with the Chairman and Member Secretary of CPCB who have presented detailed analysis of the situation, tribunal found it necessary to further examine the matter after looking into the status of implementation of GRAP and other measures including preventive strategies currently adopted.
