Noida: As the Commission for Air Quality Management (CAQM) removed stage 4 of the Graded Response Action Plan (GRAP) following a slight improvement in air quality index (AQI), schools from class 1 to 8 in Gautam Buddh Nagar will reopen from Wednesday.

Earlier when the AQI in the city crossed the 400 mark, the rules of GRAP 4 were implemented and online class was started by closing the schools.

As per the new order issued by the District Magistrate, Gautam Buddh Nagar, Suhas L.Y., the schools of the children will open from Wednesday.

The District Magistrate in his order has given strict instructions to the officers to control pollution. On Sunday, under the chairmanship of Gautam Buddh Nagar District Magistrate, a meeting was held with all the district level officers for effective control of air pollution in the city.

The District Magistrate instructed everyone that compliance of the instructions of CAQM should be ensured. He said that stage 4 of GRAP has been removed. Thereafter, all the provisions and restrictions applicable in GRAP 3 should be kept in force on the ground.

According to the District Magistrate's order, compliance of all the provisions applicable in GRAP 3 such as a conditional prohibition on construction and demolition activities will be kept in effect.

In addition, it should be ensured by all the authorities and urban local bodies that the work of mechanical sweeping, road washing and water sprinkling is done regularly.
