The Bombay High Court has raised serious concerns over Mumbai's deteriorating air quality, with AQI levels frequently crossing 300 and entering hazardous territory. The court is pressing civic authorities to implement Delhi-style GRAP measures to address the pollution crisis affecting public health.

The Slum Rehabilitation Authority has issued notices to 170 construction projects across Mumbai for violating air pollution mitigation norms, with Dahisar, Malad East, and Bhandup being the most affected areas. Developers have been given 15 days to comply or face construction shutdowns.

With air quality worsening, Mumbai has introduced stricter rules to curb construction-related pollution. These measures aim to improve air quality and create a healthier environment for its residents.
