With air pollution in the national capital rising, Delhi authorities have banned all building and demolition works till further notice.
Construction activities have been stopped across Delhi in view of pollution. I have directed Labor Minister, Manish Sisodia, to give Rs 5000 pm as financial support to each construction worker during this period, when construction activities are not permitted, Arvind Kejriwal tweeted.
