The federal capital with over 1.2 million registered vehicles and more than 300,000 vehicles entering the metropolis every day is facing serious air pollution with exacerbated bad air quality.
Ahmed Suleman, a sales boy daily commuting to Islamabad told media that there was congestion of automobiles during peak hours of morning and evening in the federal capital.
“The ambience goes worst at traffic signals and interchange when any bus of a university or department passes by releases heavy dark smoke. It is unbearable for the minors and elderly to breath in that air,” he added.
He said that most of the buses were major dark smoke emitters that usually either belonged to universities, colleges, schools, public departments or private institutions.
