CSE press release on Alarm over worsening air quality and traffic congestion in South Asian cities, ongoing action must gather momentum

“For South Asian cities like Dhaka and Delhi, maintaining urban air quality and protecting its sustainable urban commuting practices are some of the toughest challenges. Delhi, while having made some significant strides in meeting air quality challenges, has slipped and made terrible mistakes as well. Dhaka is more fortunate. Its strength remains in its huge base of zero-emission non-motorised and sustainable public transport. It just has to recognise and act upon this immense advantage and strength.”
