Delhi Education Minister Ashish Sood on Friday (December 19, 2025) announced that air purifiers will be installed in 10,000 classrooms to ensure clean air for the students. Addressing a press conference, Sood said that a total of 30,000 air purifiers will be installed in classrooms of the national capital. He further said that the government is committed to tackling the problem of pollution through long-term administrative reforms and policy measures.
“There are 38,000 classrooms, and air purifiers will be installed in them in a phased manner. We want our children to study smart and also breathe smart air. In the first phase, air purifiers will be installed in 10,000 classrooms. Tenders have been floated today itself,” Sood said.
The education minister said weather conditions in neighbouring states influenced the weather in Delhi. “We are committed towards the issue of eradicating pollution. I want to assure people of Delhi that we are taking all possible steps which will show their results on the ground very soon,” Sood stressed.
Taking a dig at Arvind Kejriwal’s government, Sood said, “We are not those who flaunt IIT degrees and do campaigns like Odd-Even or Gaadi On, Gaadi Off campaign. We are tackling the issue of pollution through long-term administrative measures”.
