Beginning Wednesday, November 9, all classes will resume outside activities at the primary schools in Delhi, the nation's capital. The decision was made as a result of the three-day improvement in air quality in the Delhi National Capital Region (NCR).
The Delhi government announced extra steps on November 4 due to high pollution levels, including the closure of elementary schools and work-from-home policies for 50% of its workforce. Additionally, the schools have put in place a number of safety measures to safeguard kids, such as breathing exercises and activities that promote mental and emotional health.
Anshu Mital, principal of MRG School in Rohini, claims that a manual or written guide will be distributed to the pupils to inform them of the kinds of foods, drinks, and conduct they should engage in to make things better. It fulfils both requirements. First of all, it guarantees correct continuity in their instruction without any breaks and channels a suitable environment free from any potential health risks. If any youngsters experience discomfort or suffering, we have a suitable medical treatment facility to take care of them, she said.
Principal of Delhi Public School (DPS) Indirapuram, Sangeeta Hajela, stated: "We have taken a lot of precautions to protect the pupils. To improve the stability and viability of the lungs and liver, teachers advise their children to eat a balanced diet that includes plenty of fruits and vegetables that are high in nutrients." "The students are receiving anti-pollution masks. At key areas, air purifiers have been installed to clean the air. These measures will undoubtedly guarantee punctual attendance and protect our pupils' health "She went on to say.
As a result of growing pollution levels, many schools in the Delhi NCR region have closed. The Delhi Chief Minister stated that all schools in the nation's capital would be closed due to rising Air Quality Index (AQI) readings. The Delhi government has made the decision to reopen schools because the AQI is currently below 400.
As part of anti-pollution measures, the Commission of Air Quality Management ordered a ban on the operation of non-BS 6 diesel light motor vehicles in Delhi NCR and the entry of trucks into the national capital on November 3 as the AQI level in the national capital spiralled to 450, just near the "severe plus" category.
