8 UP cities to get 18 new air quality monitoring stations as pollution rises

The process of setting up 18 new Continuous Ambient Air Quality Monitoring Stations (CAAQMS) has begun across 8 cities of Uttar Pradesh, by the UPPCB (Uttar Pradesh Pollution Control Board). Five of these air quality monitoring stations will come up in Agra, one each in Mathura and Firozabad, two each in Lucknow and Kanpur besides three each in Varanasi and Prayagraj. One station will also be set up in Gorakhpur. The development comes as air pollution across different north Indian states is at an all time high.
