Delhi's air quality remains severe, prompting GRAP-III restrictions under which stringent ban will be put in place on construction and demolition activities among others.

A dense fog enveloped Delhi and nearby regions early Saturday (16 November) as the national capital’s air quality index (AQI) remained in the ‘Severe’ category for the fourth straight day. Delhi’s overall AQI was recorded at 404 on Saturday morning, placing it in the ‘Severe’ category, according to data from the Central Pollution Control Board.

Delhi NCR is implementing GRAP Stage 3 measures due to severe air pollution, halting non-essential construction and restricting vehicle use. BS-III petrol and BS-IV diesel vehicles are banned, impacting transportation.

Air pollution choking New Delhi has ground outdoor work to a halt and disrupted air travel in the Indian capital.

The GRAP 3 curbs in Delhi include ban on demolition and construction activities, and entry of certain vehicles inside Delhi-NCR, among other curbs, to prevent further deterioration of air quality.

Starting from 8 am on Friday, the Graded Response Action Plan (GRAP) Stage 3 will be in place across Delhi NCR due to 'severe' air quality. This will impose stricter measures to tackle pollution.
