Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal on Monday launched a study to gather realtime information on sources of pollution and help the government launch a targeted response.

He said the reason for pollution changes on an hourly basis and until “we calculate the source of the pollution on a realtime basis, we cannot have an effective policy on the issue”.

Kejriwal inaugurated the ‘realtime source apportionment supersite’ at Rouse Avenue here along with an air quality monitoring van.

“Today launched one such van, but once this stabilises and the data from this van comes in, we will launch several other such vans that can provide us data from the different wards of Delhi.
