To fight rising winter pollution, the Delhi government will begin staggered office timings from November 15. Chief Minister Rekha Gupta said government offices will work from 10:00 am to 6:30 pm, while municipal offices will run from 8:30 am to 5:00 pm till February 15, 2026. The move aims to reduce traffic congestion and vehicle emissions that worsen Delhi’s air during winter. Officials said the plan will help spread vehicle movement through the day and improve air quality. This comes as Delhi’s Air Quality Index crossed 400 in several areas, touching the “severe” category this week. (PC: NDTV)
