Overview
- Chief Minister Rekha Gupta directed the Delhi Urban Shelter Improvement Board to survey slum and JJ clusters for households still using chulhas or angithis.
- The survey will produce an eligibility roster so identified families can receive LPG connections under the Pradhan Mantri Ujjwala Yojana.
- Officials framed the push as a public‑health step to cut indoor smoke exposure and reduce emissions from domestic cooking in densely populated areas.
- City departments including PWD, Irrigation and Flood Control, DUSIB, DSIIDC, MCD and NDMC have been mobilized for on‑ground anti‑pollution work.
- Hotspot measures include water sprinkling, smog guns, mechanical dust suppression, and repairs to roads and pavements, with LPG distribution to follow the survey.
