DTC bus trips will increase to deal with air pollution

Due to this air pollution, Delhiites do not have to spend much time standing at the bus stand, for this a plan is being made to increase the number of DTC buses and their frequency. Under this scheme, Delhiites will get a lot of benefits and they will be able to reach their home, office or work place on time.

Buses will be available in 10 to 12 minutes

The main aim of increasing the number of DTC buses is that, while buses reach most of the stands in Delhi at an interval of 15-30 minutes, under this scheme, Delhiites can get bus service at an interval of 10 to 12 minutes. Along with this, water will be sprinkled in the places of Delhi where there is more pollution.

Minister Gopal Rai said that more than 1,800 traffic personnel are being deployed at 97 points in Delhi. More than 6,000 MCD employees will be deployed to control road dust. Apart from this, neighboring states (Uttar Pradesh, Rajasthan and Haryana) will be requested not to send diesel buses to Delhi.
