The Delhi government, however, said that there will be a ban on outdoor sports activities and morning assemblies for one week.
All government and private schools in Delhi will reopen from Monday following a decline in air pollution levels. However, the Delhi government said that there will be a ban on outdoor sports activities and morning assemblies for one week.
Earlier, the Centre revoked the ban on construction activities in Delhi-NCR and the entry of polluting trucks and commercial four-wheelers into the national capital following an improvement in air quality in the region.
Schools in Delhi were shut down and a winter break was announced on November 8 amid rising pollution in the city and growing health concerns. The Centre’s Graded Response Action Plan (GRAP) for Delhi-NCR categorises actions to control pollution into four stages: Stage I — Poor (AQI 201-300), Stage II — Very Poor (AQI 301-400), Stage III — Severe (AQI 401-450) and Stage IV — Severe Plus (AQI above 450).
