The Centre has launched a programme to reduce partic­ulate matter (PM) pollution by 20­30% in at least 102 ci­ties by 2024.

The National Clean Air Programme (NCAP), which was formally unveiled on Thursday, is envisaged as a scheme to provide the States and the Centre with a frame­ work to combat air pollu­tion. “This is our war against pollution across the length and breadth of the country,” said A.K. Jain, a senior o­ficial in the Union Environ­ment Ministry.
