Delhi chief minister Rekha Gupta said the city’s pollution is a “legacy problem” and warned there is “no magic wand” to fix it quickly. Speaking at the Hindustan Times Leadership Summit 2025, she said, “We cannot do something like a lockdown in a city like Delhi.” Gupta added that her government is “doing everything” and taking steps each day to fight smog. She said past governments failed to act and claimed, “In 10 months, we have worked at high speed.” She listed measures like giving heaters to prevent open burning and using sprinklers. She said Yamuna cleaning is “ongoing.” (PC: HT)
