In a plea initiated by itself in 2015 on the poor air quality in the national capital, the Delhi High Court on Monday observed that the city is at present “oscillating between very poor and severe” category.
A division bench of Chief Justice Satish Chandra Sharma and Justice Subramonium Prasad was hearing Senior Counsel Kailash Vasdev, the amicus curiae in the matter, who informed the court about the “unauthorized construction” in the cities forest areas including Asola and areas around Vasant Vihar.
He argued that several forest areas in the city have turned into unauthorized colonies resulting in rampant deforestation.
