The Commission for Air Quality Management in NCR and Adjoining Areas (CAQM) met on 19 June 2026 to review enforcement and compliance across the National Capital Region for the period from 30 May to 13 June 2026. During the 15-day period the Flying Squads carried out 199 inspections and detected 66 violations across construction and demolition sites, industrial units and diesel generator (DG) sets. Proposed actions include closure of four units, sealing of 29 DG sets and issuance of 12 directions for compliance. Of the 199 inspections, 10 were at construction and demolition sites, 94 in the industrial sector and 95 pertaining to DG sets. The teams reported eight violations at construction and demolition sites, 23 in the industrial sector and 35 relating to DG sets. The Enforcement Task Force reviewed prior actions and noted that all actionable cases for construction and demolition sites and DG sets have been addressed, with 12 resumption orders issued after verification of compliance, including six for industrial units and six for construction and demolition sites. The ETF examined a special drive inspection conducted on 15 June in Muzaffarnagar, Uttar Pradesh, which covered 10 industrial units. Inspectors found only one unit compliant while nine units were non-compliant and common deficiencies included non-functional or inadequate pollution control infrastructure such as non-operational wet scrubbers, cyclones and air pollution control devices, and inadequate functioning of fume extraction systems. Teams also observed deficiencies in stack monitoring infrastructure, including absence of monitoring facilities, incorrect stack heights and non-compliance with prescribed criteria. Operational violations included failure to meet emission standards, use of refuse derived fuel without requisite pre-treatment and non-compliance with provisions under Direction Number 76 of the Commission. The ETF reviewed cumulative enforcement status as on 19 June and noted that Flying Squads have inspected 27,577 units and projects to date. Inspections have led to 1,797 Closure Directions and 1,416 Resumption Orders, with 123 cases transferred to State Pollution Control Boards and the Delhi Pollution Control Committee. The Commission emphasised strengthened enforcement and prompt compliance verification.
