NDTV
The party's city president, Anil Kumar, visited the centre, alleged that machines are still being procured at the supersite.
The Delhi Congress on Wednesday said a facility to monitor pollutants and air quality here in real time, which was supposed to become functional on October 20, is "yet to start operations", a claim the city government termed as baseless.
The party's city president, Anil Kumar, who visited the centre, also alleged that "machines are still being procured at the supersite", despite the air quality index (AQI) reaching "severe" in several parts of the national capital.
The Delhi government, in partnership with IIT-Kanpur, has come up with a supersite, capable of monitoring various compounds, at Rouse Avenue to monitor air quality in real time and also make forecasts.
"The supersite that had to be made functional on October 20 to keep track on pollution is yet to start operations. It is still in the development stage and machines are still being procured. This is despite the AQI reaching 'severe' in many parts of the city," Mr Kumar said.
