New Delhi: Punjab, Haryana, Rajasthan and Uttar Pradesh must come with a revised and detailed action plan to combat the burning of the remaining harvest in the next few weeks.
The new air quality management commission was formed in the NCR rejected their design plan and requested change.
The plan, which will be delivered at the end of last month, will now be submitted in the next two weeks after entering the suggested change commissions to each country.
Sources say while each country has prepared its action plan to control burning stumps in its jurisdiction, the main details and general methodologies to detect the number of missing fires.
While the air commission has asked each country to adopt the protocol developed by the Indian space research organization to estimate the amount of burning of residues, a number of land surface details and inputs found lost in the plan.
Officials said the use of ISRO technology would apply to Delhi, Rajasthan, Haryana, Rajasthan, and above, with uniform data available for each state to be submitted to the Comparison Commission with the number of fires of the past few years.
Sources say multiplicity of ways to measure the number of fires, including different satellite data, resulting in statistical fluctuations needed for comparison.
Members of the Commission, spoke to TII with anonymous requirements, said that while the initial plan had not been rejected, Punjab, Haryana and above specifically asked to ‘update’ and ‘revise’ their action plans.
“After last winter, every country was asked to prepare an action plan that burned an upcoming winter.
Some deficiencies were found in the plan sent.
Every country was informed about what was needed other than the planned specification,” said the member.
Burn the remnants of wheat harvest to clean the field to sow another starting in October every year.
The peak in this field of fire is generally seen in November.
The smoke released will be trapped in the air, because of meteorological conditions such as low temperatures, reduced wind speed and low boundary layers.
If the wind towards the capital, the stump burns produces as many as 40% of the total PM2.5 pollutants in Delhi in October and November, according to past data collected by air quality systems and weather forecasting and research, forecasting under the Ministry of Earth Sciences UNI.
If the harvest season of rabbi plants in April and May this year is something that must be passed, Punjab and Haryana can be expected to wrestle with many agricultural fires.
VIIRS satellite data was analyzed by the energy, environment and water council between April 1 and May 16 found 4,000 more fire in Punjab this year compared to the same period last year.
That number was also higher than 2019.
Likewise, the fire was taken into account in Haryana almost doubled from the record in the same period last year.
According to the satellite image, Punjab recorded 12,033 fire calculations between April 1 and May 16 this year against 8,172 in the same period last year.
In 2019, 10,307 fires were recorded during this period.
Haryana showed an increase from 2019, but compared to 2020, there were twice the number of agricultural fires this year.
Data showed 4,825 fires in Haryana this year against 2,523 years ago.
