The National Clean Air Program (NCAP) has a strong potential to improve air quality in cities. Its monitoring is being carried out by committees formed at both the central and state levels.
The central government launched the 'National Clean Air Program' to control the growing air pollution in cities. Under this program, a long-term strategy has been developed at the national level.
Funds have been allocated to ensure the timely completion of all activities related to this program. The focus of the program includes measures to improve air quality, capacity building, and raising public awareness through education and communication.
Cities across the country have been identified under this program where air quality is significantly lower than normal levels. The goal of NCAP is to reduce particulate matter in the air by 20 to 30 percent by the year 2024. The progress of the program is being closely monitored by committees at both the central and state levels.
