Anti-Pollution Curbs Under GRAP 4 Revoked In Delhi As Air Quality Improves
Press Trust of India | Updated: January 20, 2026 18:25 IST
New Delhi :
The Centre's pollution watchdog on Tuesday revoked curbs under Stage-4 of the Graded Response Action Plan (GRAP) in Delhi-NCR as the capital's air quality improved.
In an order, the Commission for Air Quality Management (CAQM) said that actions under Stages 1, 2 and 3 of the revised GRAP will, however, remain in force.
"While GRAP Stage-4 is being revoked, keeping in view the winter season when weather conditions may not be always favourable and in order to ensure that the AQI levels do not slip further, citizens are requested to strictly adhere to the citizen charter under GRAP Stage-1, 2 & 3," the order said.
