Delhi Chief Minister Rekha Gupta urged neighboring states for immediate joint action on air pollution at the Northern Zonal Council meeting chaired by Amit Shah. With Delhi's AQI at 351 in the "very poor" category, Gupta advocated for stricter controls on stubble burning, industrial emissions, dust management, and zero-emission transport following Supreme Court criticism of inadequate environmental enforcement in Punjab and Haryana.
