To lower the local Air Quality Index (AQI) and protect residents from the effects of severe pollution, Municipal Corporation Manesar started spraying water on roads through anti-smog guns. A senior MC official said a team of Municipal Corporation is continuously spraying water.

“This initiative helps in settling road dust and reducing airborne particles, thereby maintaining better air quality,” he added.

The district administration is also considering cloud seeding or artificial rain as a temporary measure to reduce pollution levels following Diwali. The AQI in Gurugram was 240 today (in moderate category) while in Manesar, it was very poor at 309.

The MC informed through its X handle today that water was sprayed today at Naurangpur-Tauru road, Sector 78 and Sector 79.

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
