Haryana Governing Committee approves draft projects for clean air initiative

Funded by the World Bank, this ambitious initiative aims to combat air pollution and promote sustainable development across Haryana. The project is set for implementation over six years (2024-25-2029-30), with Rs 3,600 crore allocated for its first phase.

The project adopts a phased approach to address emissions across multiple sectors. In the first phase, Gurugram and Faridabad will be the primary focus areas, targeting institutional strengthening, agriculture, and household emissions.

Priority clusters across the state will be identified to implement proposed interventions aimed at reducing pollution in agriculture and household sectors.

According to an official statement on Tuesday, Dr Joshi, during the meeting, stressed the importance of inter-departmental coordination and timely execution to ensure the project's success.
