Delhi Minister Sirsa Rejects Manipulation Claims, Accuses AAP Of Politicising Pollution

Delhi Environment Minister Manjinder Singh Sirsa has rejected allegations of manipulation of air quality data, accusing the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) of politicising the pollution issue. Sirsa said all air quality monitoring stations in Delhi are under the supervision of the Commission for Air Quality Management (CAQM), which reports to the Supreme Court. He also attributed relatively lower pollution levels this year to favourable wind conditions and claimed Delhi recorded its cleanest AQI in a decade under the BJP government. Meanwhile, updated data from several Delhi Pollution Control Committee (DPCC) monitoring stations showed a spike in pollutant levels during the early hours after Diwali.
