The Delhi government will impose a complete ban on construction activities in the national capital from December 10 to January 20 as part of measures to tackle worsening air pollution during the winter season, Chief Minister Rekha Gupta announced on Friday.
Gupta urged residents to report violations, saying construction sites measuring more than 500 square metres will be monitored through the Delhi government's Dust Portal and AI-enabled cameras.
