New Delhi: The Delhi government is going to take the help of modern technology to make the capital a clean, green and world-class city. The government is preparing to launch DUST Portal 2.0 soon to effectively control dust pollution. In this regard, Delhi Environment Minister Manjinder Singh Sirsa reviewed the progress of the portal on Friday.
The proposed DUST Portal 2.0 is an advanced AI-enabled environmental monitoring and compliance platform developed by DPCC. It has been specially designed to effectively tackle the problem of dust pollution in Delhi and strengthen the monitoring of pollution control measures.
The government believes that this AI-based platform will make monitoring construction sites, dust-emitting areas, and compliance with pollution control standards more effective and transparent. It will enable faster identification of violations and ensure timely action. During a review meeting, the Environment Minister directed officials to finalize all technical and administrative aspects of the portal. DUST Portal 2.0 is expected to be launched in the coming weeks. According to officials, the portal will use artificial intelligence (AI), real-time data analysis, automated assessment systems, AI-enabled cameras, particulate matter (PM) sensors, and digital governance tools to monitor construction activities and compliance with environmental regulations across Delhi.
The portal will also effectively monitor dust control measures implemented at construction sites. It will continuously monitor the use and efficiency of high-density green anti-dust nets, anti-smog guns, and other pollution control systems. This will ensure that construction agencies are adhering to prescribed environmental standards. Furthermore, DUST Portal 2.0 will also feature an automated alert system. If pollution levels in an area exceed prescribed standards, the system will automatically issue an alert. This will provide immediate information to the relevant departments, enabling them to take necessary control measures in a timely manner.
