If the Congress is serious about air pollution, it must make Bangalore and rest of Karnataka a model for clean and healthy air. We see waste burning daily and highly polluting diesel school buses and other vehicles daily going unchecked. @Jairam_Ramesh @INCIndia @RahulGandhi

The obsession with breaking records has successfully turned the fragile Himalayas into the world's longest PARKING LOT. Joshimath is currently choking under a massive 25-30 KM long traffic jam. From Vishnuprayag to 15 km beyond, tourists are stuck in their cars for hours.

[Pune Mirror @ThePuneMirror]

Pune's garbage collection system is facing a massive crisis, and the reason behind it is absolutely shocking. Out of over 10,000 workers assigned to keep our city clean, only about 40% are actually doing their jobs on the ground. A detailed internal report by the solid waste management department reveals that around 450 to 500 sanitation workers are allegedly deployed at the private residences of political leaders, including MLAs, corporators, and former office-bearers. Instead of cleaning the streets, these municipal employees are reportedly being used for personal duties like housekeeping and driving, all while drawing their full salaries from the taxpayer-funded PMC budget.
What makes it worse is that this isn't a new issue. The investigation shows that some workers have been completely absent from their original cleaning postings for 5 to 10 years. Even though a detailed report on this mess was submitted to senior civic officials last year, political pressure and frequent transfers of senior officers have successfully delayed any concrete action. With the city's cleanliness visibly suffering, PMC Commissioner Naval Kishore Ram has now stepped in and ordered a strict verification process, promising that anyone found guilty of exploiting the system will face consequences.

दिल्ली गर्मी से उबल रही है, संजय झील में सैकड़ों मछलियां मर गईं

पूर्वी दिल्ली के मयूर विहार स्थित कृत्रिम संजय झील में बड़ी संख्या में छोटी-बड़ी मछलियां मर चुकी हैं, जो पानी की सतह पर दिखाई दे रही हैं, मछलियों के सड़ने से आसपास बदबू फैल गई है, पिछले 10 दिनों से झील का जलस्तर लगातार घट रहा है, वहीं, दिल्ली में पड़ रही भीषण गर्मी को भी पानी के कम होने की बड़ी वजह माना जा रहा है, जिसके कारण झील में छोड़ी गई मछलियां लगातार मरती जा रही हैं

Yes we need thousands/lakhs of native trees in public spaces - roads, Market places etc in Delhi NCR along with mulching. @LtGovDelhi @CMODelhi @sirsa

[Chetan Bhattacharji @CBhattacharji]

One of Delhi’s most beautiful trees.
Why can’t *every* road, flyover, market have Amaltas, and gulmahor, jacaranda, jamun etc have hundreds of these trees
🤷🏽‍♂️

Breaking:
3 #airpollution headlines

1. No new fossil fuel 3-wheelers (passengers, goods category) in #Delhi from 1st Jan, 2027.
@CAQM goes step further than @CMODelhi’s EV plan which is still a draft.

A beautiful historic park in Delhi becomes a parking lot. Appeal to ⁦@LtGovDelhi⁩ to stop this. Sir, for few months a park under DDA has suddenly opened a gate from the Mehrauli-Gurgaon road to private vehicles. Residents, regular walkers harassed. Appeal to save park

@sundernursery Kindly address problem of dust inside Sunder Nursery esp in April-May

Sweeping at nights + more grass cover may help

Guards in the play area are not attentive and on mobile phones

Noticed gardeners etc use motorcycles inside Sunder Nursery, many times in past
