The severity of air pollution and dense Smog cover in the capital led to the cancellation of the two Ranji Trophy encounters – ‘Bengal & Gujarat’ at ‘Feroz Shah Kotla Stadium’ & ‘Hyderabad vs Tripura’ at the ‘Karnail Singh Stadium’ on Sunday. The BCCI in a media release stated that both matches will be rescheduled.

“Emergency measures are the need of the hour,Instead of politicizing the pollution issue, we need to solve it together”, said Delhi Chief Minister.

Measures taken-

Delhi school and colleges will remain shut for 3 days, also there will be no construction work till next 5 day and the use of diesel-run generator sets demolished for 10 days in a desperate bid to control a crisis.
