Major pollutants include Particulate Matter (PM2.5, PM10), Nitrogen Oxides (NOx), Sulphur Dioxide (SO2), Carbon Monoxide (CO), and Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs).
Sources include incomplete combustion of fuel, evaporation of fuel, and wear and tear of tires/brakes.
Health impacts range from respiratory diseases, cardiovascular problems, to cancer and premature deaths.
Environmental impacts include smog formation, acid rain, and contribution to climate change.
Control measures involve stricter emission norms (e.g., BS-VI), promotion of electric vehicles (EVs), improved public transport, and fuel quality upgrades.
The Motor Vehicles Act 1988 and Environment Protection Act 1986 provide the legal framework for regulation.
Delhi's air quality often deteriorates due to vehicular emissions, especially during winter months.
Other measures include odd-even schemes, vehicle scrappage policy, and congestion pricing.
