Air and water pollution in the capital of country (Delhi) has become a burning topic at the present. When, chemical factories nearby are blamed for the water pollution, burning of stubble by farmers is mostly blamed for the air pollution. Supreme Court has taken a various serious view to the present situation of air pollution in the capital and has asked the state governments and central government to consider the situation as an emergency and come up with viable air pollution control methods. Most of the air pollution before was assigned by the pollution experts only to stubble burning in nearby areas but now after scolding by the Supreme court, the experts have changed their opinion that the contribution of stubble burning in air pollution is only 4-10% where as the major part of pollution comes from vehicles, house-holds, industries and construction works etc. At one hand, stubble burning should be put an end by giving viable alternatives to farmers who want to make the field ready (free from stubble) for next crop not only within short time span but also when there is shortage of labour, costly machinery, no-use for stubble, and no local industries based on stubble. On the other hand, there is also need to control other pollution generic activities by forcing them to adhere to application of pollution control techniques.
