  "account": "Delhi's air quality has deteriorated to a \"very poor\" category, prompting the district administration to issue show-cause notices to private commercial establishments, including two major law firms on Gurugram Golf Course Road. The directive, part of efforts to curb regional air pollution, mandates a 50% work-from-home policy for private establishments. Gurugram Deputy Commissioner Uttam Singh mandated this rule on Tuesday, following instructions from the Commission for Air Quality Management (CAQM). Show-cause notices were issued to Trilegal and JSA Advocates & Solicitors on Thursday, following surprise inspections that found these firms exceeded the permitted on-site employee limit. JSA Advocates & Solicitors had 87 employees present out of 117, while Trilegal had 160 out of 262. Both firms were directed to respond with supporting documents within 24 hours or face legal proceedings under the CAQM Act.",
  "summary": "Gurugram has issued show-cause notices to law firms Trilegal and JSA for allegedly breaching the 50% WFH mandate. Surprise inspections found that both offices had more employees on-site than permitted under the anti-pollution directive.",
