Delhi International Airport Limited is a joint venture, formed as a consortium between GMR Airport Limited and Airports Authority of India.
The Chief Minister said that the Delhi government is scientifically working on short-term, medium-term and long-term strategies to tackle pollution.
He also said that the Delhi government has already installed mist spray systems on major roads across the capital and at 143 elevated metro stations.
Additionally, the real-time monitoring network has been extended to 46 metro stations, making it the largest such network in any city in the country, he added. Strict adherence to pollution control norms is also being ensured through the ‘Bayu Rakshak’ initiative.
The mist system installed at the airport will provide passengers with an improved air quality experience and strengthen the capital’s environmental image, he said, thanking the GMR Group for the initiative.
The mist spray system will be expanded to 600 poles in future, further strengthening dust control at the airport and surrounding areas, the Delhi CMO said in a statement.
The Delhi government aims to fully electrify the public bus fleet by 2029, expand the metro network, develop EV charging infrastructure, install more than 1,000 water sprinklers across the city and implement AI-based dust monitoring at construction sites, Gupta said.
