The Punjab Disaster Management Authority (PDMA) has set up Smog Monitoring Cell in Lahore to analyze the environment situation closely as air quality turned unhealthy in the provincial capital.
Punjab Chief Minister Usman Buzdar stated this while chairing a meeting to review the measures taken to deal with smog in the province.
He said traditional brick-kilns are being closed across the province while Zig Zag technology’s kilns will continue working. He directed the authorities concerned to ensure strict implementation of a ban on burning of tyres in factories and residues of crops.
