Installing a smog tower in the capital may take another ten months, with a fresh MoU signed by IIT-Bombay with the central government. The work will be carried out using expertise from University of Minnesota and IIT Delhi. At present, Delhi has only one smog tower – a 20-ft- tall device, which was installed at Lajpat Nagar in January by a local traders’ association.
The reason for the cycling increase vary from limited public transport options to a preference for contactless modes of travel to keep the Covid-19 infection at bay.

Spread over 52 acres and rising 60 metres, site littered with used test kits, protective gear and blood-stained cotton. Mansoor Khan and his wife Latifa Bibi have been collecting scraps of plastic and other items at an enormous landfill site in the Indian capital for nearly 20 years.

Covid-19 is all-subsuming; it makes difficult thinking or acting on issues that made up our world yesterday and would stay in our world of tomorrow. One such issue is that of plastic — the most ubiquitous substance in our lives that fills up our land and oceans, polluting them and adding to our health stress.
The initial finding of the ongoing study by five researchers—all alumni of IIT-Delhi and IIT-Roorkee—shows that on at least 22 of the 56 stretches monitored, the number of cyclists has increased by 4% to 12%.
