Delhi-NCR: How ban on diesel generators will affect people? | Ground Report

The Environment Pollution (Prevention & Control) Authority has ordered a ban on diesel generators, except for emergency purposes, in Delhi and neighbouring cities from Thursday as part of the Graded Response Action Plan (GRAP) to control air pollution. However, the order has come as torture for the residents, especially those living in more than 1,000 residential condominiums situated across Delhi-NCR. These condominiums have installed back-up power systems, and almost all run on diesel generators.
