New Delhi, June 25: The National Human Rights Commission (NHRC) took suo moto cognizance over media reports that cited an outside study claiming that air pollution poses a serious threat to human health in India, shortening life expectancy by an average of 5 years and by 9.7 years for residents of Delhi.

According to a press release on Saturday, the Commission has noted that, if genuine, the information in the media raises a significant right to a life problem.

In a notice to the Secretary of the Union Ministry of Environment, Forests, and Climate Change, the Commission has requested a report on the problem, including an update on the 2019-launched National Clean Air Program, within four weeks.

The top polluted states according to the survey include Uttar Pradesh, Bihar, Haryana, and Tripura.

State officials must approach the matter with the utmost sincerity and in a timely manner, according to the Commission’s expectations.

If the yearly average PM 2.5 levels did not exceed 5 micrograms per cubic metre, as per WHO norms, Delhi inhabitants would live an additional 10 years longer on average, according to media reports published on June 15, 2022.
