Lok Sabha Leader of Opposition Rahul Gandhi has launched ‘Awaaz Bharat Ki,’ a platform for citizens to share how air pollution is affecting their health and loved ones. Gandhi emphasized the heavy toll of air pollution on health and the economy, urging people to speak up. He highlighted that vulnerable groups, especially children and the elderly, are bearing the brunt of the crisis.
The initiative aims to address the urgent need to tackle air pollution, which has been causing severe health issues in cities like New Delhi. The worsening air quality has led to challenges for residents, forcing schools to resort to online classes due to high pollution levels. Residents have protested against the deteriorating air quality, demanding concrete actions from the government.
During the Winter Session of Parliament, the Congress party raised concerns about air pollution and organized protests to push for accountability from the authorities. The initiative by Rahul Gandhi seeks to amplify the voices of those impacted by air pollution and drive change towards cleaner air for all.
