New Delhi, September 23: The Winter Action Plan, based on 21 key focus points, will be unveiled on September 25, Delhi Environment Minister Gopal Rai said. The plan was earlier scheduled to be released on September 27 but it was shifted due to the Delhi Assembly session. Rai told PTI videos, "The biggest challenge during winter is to reduce pollution levels. We have already held meetings with 33 departments to strategise on this issue."

"Today, I will meet with the chief secretary to discuss further suggestions. The Winter Action Plan is ready and will be launched on September 25 instead of the 27th due to the Assembly session," Rai said. Rai also expressed confidence that, with collaborative efforts, pollution levels in Delhi could be reduced significantly throughout the year, aiming for similar results during the winter months. The plan, based on 21 key focus points, was prepared following a meeting with 33 departments. Who Is Gopal Rai?
