Walkers To Decide If Nehru Park Should Get Air Purifiers; Activists Aren't So Sure

The New Delhi Municipal Council (NDMC) is conducting a survey among the regular morning walkers at Nehru Park to gauge public opinion on installing outdoor air purifiers. The proposal aims to improve air quality in the popular green space. However, environmental activists and experts are critical of the plan. They argue that such large-scale outdoor purifiers are scientifically ineffective, extremely expensive to run, and offer only a "false sense of security." Critics suggest the funds would be better spent on addressing the root causes of pollution, such as enhancing public transport and reducing vehicular emissions, rather than on a symbolic and inefficient technological fix.
