Hindustan Times-Delhi-NCR pollution: Real estate bodies NAREDCO and Credai issue advisories to member developers after GRAP 1 imposed
The Air Quality Index (AQI) remained in the 'poor' category in the national capital on October 20 just a few days before Diwali. Restrictions under the first stage of the Graded Response Action Plan (GRAP) have been in force in the national capital since the last five days.
Real estate developers said that they are taking measures to curb the menace, adding that the fraternity is with the government in fighting pollution. They also flagged concerns over delay in completing projects.
“To comply with GRAP 1 guidelines while minimizing disruptions we are promoting best practices in dust control and waste management and encouraging collaboration with local authorities for smooth compliance,” said G Hari Babu, President of the National Real Estate Development Council (NAREDCO).
