  • The Delhi Pollution Control Committee launched the Road RADAR (Real-time Air Pollution Detection Across Roads) initiative to identify sources of air pollution through daily ground-level surveys in Delhi.
  • The initiative uses geo-tagged reporting through the MCD-311 mobile application for quick action on pollution sources.
  • The programme covers around 18,000 km of roads every month across Delhi.
  • Road RADAR tracks 11 categories of pollution sources, including road dust, garbage, biomass burning, plastic burning, and construction and demolition waste.
  • The initiative aims to improve real-time monitoring, administrative accountability, and rapid redressal of pollution-related complaints.
