Answer:
Air pollution in India is generally perceived as a problem of the cities and by the cities. Quite predictably, solutions have been designed for the cities. Initiatives to alleviate poor air remain conspicuously absent in rural areas.
Rural air pollution has usually been ignored by scientists and policy makers alike for the longest time.
The National Clean Air Program (NCAP), the first pan-India initiative towards cleaning India’s air, suggests comprehensive time-bound initiatives both at the city and rural levels. The goal is “to meet the prescribed annual average ambient air quality standards at all locations in the country in a stipulated time frame”.
Since its inception, however, there has been little focus or progress outside the non-attainment cities.
Weak monitoring network
India has 804 manual monitoring stations under the National Ambient Monitoring Programme (NAMP) and 274 real-time monitoring stations (CAAQMS). Most of these are disproportionately located in tier-1 cities; a few are in tier-2 cities.
A quick analysis shows that real-time monitoring is nearly absent in rural areas. Additionally, even cities in Arunachal Pradesh, Andaman and Nicobar Islands and Manipur don’t have a single real-time monitoring station.
The NAMP network of manual monitors fare only marginally better. It does cover all states and includes even smaller cities and towns, but 96 per cent monitoring stations are within the city boundaries and do not cover surrounding rural hamlets.
