Recently the first phase of the Graded Response Action Plan has been implemented in Delhi.
This plan has been implemented to check air pollution during winter in Delhi.
This plan has been implemented by the Central Government.
The air quality in Delhi, one of the most polluted cities in the world, has reached 'poor' category.
Under this plan, heavy fines will now be imposed on vehicles that are clearly causing pollution.
Trucks going to the National Capital Region will be routed through the Eastern and Western Peripheries.
Every year during winter the national capital battles eye-stinging smog and severely toxic air.
This mainly includes stubble burning in neighboring states and the situation is worsening due to pollution caused by firecrackers during Diwali.
