India observes National Pollution Control Day on 2nd December. This day is important to acknowledge the importance of sharing awareness and coming together to act on the leading grave problem. India has been experiencing massive pollution-related problems. The Air Quality Index (AQI) of India is the poorest in the entire world. Yes, you have read that right! As we all know, Delhi is the most polluted city in the world. Talking about this hard-hitting fact further, Indian TV actor Nishant Malkhani comes forward and talks about National Pollution Control Day.
Nishant Malkhani :
Nishant Malkhani says, “For over thirty years now, India has been observing a rapid increase in air quality and pollution. Delhi has been the centre point of this issue for a long time now. However, now joining the bandwagon are the metro cities of India, Mumbai and Kolkata. They have also followed Delhi in the poorest AQI list. Therefore, it is now high time to acknowledge the facts and act on the same. We have to get serious as it is a question of everyone’s health. Speaking from my personal experience, my younger brother who is in Delhi has breathing issues.”
He further adds, “I hope that the metro cities Mumbai and Kolkata don’t turn out like Delhi. It is high time that we need to find a good and effective solution as soon as possible. Electric vehicles are a good alternative. However, we also have to think about the infrastructure. Also, the government needs to install more charging stations for electric vehicles. I even believe that the government can provide some kind of subsidy to the people who switch to electric vehicles in order to encourage them. I am not asking everyone to use cycles as I understand that is not possible in metro cities. Going electric with government support can be a huge step towards greater change.”
