A day after the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) burnt Ravanas created out of garbage at 3,500 locations in the Capital, Leader of the Opposition in Delhi Assembly Ramvir Singh Bidhuri said he would file a formal complaint against the party with the National Green Tribunal (NGT).
There was a ban and a heavy fine on open burning of garbage in the city after the implementation of the the Graded Response Action Plan (GRAP) in Delhi, the leader argued.
тАЬDue to garbage burning by Aam Aadmi Party workers all day on October 4, the pollution in Delhi increased to a severe stage on October 5 and there was a blanket of smoke in the morning,тАЭ Mr. Bidhuri alleged.
тАЬAt 10 a.m., the air quality index in Delhi reached 195, which was close to тАШpoor categoryтАЩ. GRAP has been implemented from October 1 to control pollution. As per the rules of GRAP, activities like burning of garbage are completely banned in Delhi,тАЭ the BJP leader said.
Mr. Bidhuri said┬аthat AAP should not only be fined heavily for burning garbage at 3,500 places, but a case also be registered against its leaders.
