Lahore closes primary schools for a week due to hazardous air quality

apnews.com — November 4, 2024, 06:01 AM UTC

Lahore's government has closed primary schools for a week due to dangerously high air pollution levels. The air-quality index reached a record high over the weekend, prompting officials to take action to protect children's health.

In addition to school closures, a "green lockdown" has been implemented. This includes requiring face masks, limiting work attendance, banning barbecuing without filters, and restricting motorized rickshaws.

The air quality has severely deteriorated, with PM 2.5 levels nearing 450, classified as hazardous. The government has also banned construction in certain areas and imposed fines on polluting vehicles.
