*************************************************************************
Starting December 18, 2025, Delhi has implemented GRAP-IV (Graded Response Action Plan) — the toughest anti-pollution measures yet, to curb the alarming air quality levels in the region. These measures include strict restrictions on vehicles, work-from-home mandates for all private and government offices, and a ban on certain construction activities in the Delhi-NCR area.
Key measures introduced under Stage IV of GRAP include:
• Non-Delhi vehicles below Bharat Stage-VI (BS-VI) emission standards will be banned from entering the city.
• Vehicles without a valid Pollution Under Control (PUC) certificate will not be allowed to refuel at petrol pumps.
• Private, government offices must follow 50% work from home.
• All construction and demolition activities have been suspended, including public infrastructure projects.
• Schools must operate in a hybrid mode, with online options available for primary and secondary students.
The air quality in Delhi remains ‘very poor’ with the Air Quality Index (AQI) recorded at 358, signaling a severe health risk.
What’s Allowed:
• Emergency services such as hospitals, fire services, and essential public utilities are exempt from these restrictions.
• Government and private workers involved in emergency services are exempt from the work-from-home mandate.
The introduction of GRAP-IV underscores the urgency of tackling Delhi’s persistent pollution issues.
This topic is essential for UPSC aspirants, especially under General Studies Paper III and Current Affairs.
