GRAP 1 in Delhi: Impact on NCR schools? Open or closed? Know about restrictions and bans - Allowed vs not allowed today
Under Stage I of GRAP, schools across Delhi and the NCR remain fully open and operational.
Delhi's air quality has dropped to the 'poor' category, prompting Stage I of the Graded Response Action Plan (GRAP) to go into effect across the National Capital Region (NCR). Under Stage I, schools remain open and operational, with no closures, hybrid classes, or restrictions mandated. However, higher pollution thresholds trigger different measures.
Under Stage III (Severe AQI 401-450), schools in Delhi and adjoining areas are directed to conduct classes for children up to Class V in a hybrid mode, with the option to switch to online learning. Stage IV (Severe+ AQI 450) permits the closure of colleges and educational institutions. Today, under Stage I, standard physical schooling continues uninterrupted across the NCR.
Prohibited actions include open burning, use of coal or firewood tandoors, overaged vehicles, non-destined truck traffic, illegal construction, and use of non-compliant diesel generator sets. Allowed actions include dust mitigation measures, compliant generator sets, clean eatery appliances, and public and private transport.
