The minister explained that the centre works on this principle, bringing data from many agencies onto a common platform for real-time and historical study of pollution levels, identification of sources, assessment of trends and tracking of compliance in the field against prescribed standards.

The platform integrates readings from 111 continuous ambient air quality monitoring stations that are operational across Delhi and the national capital region, installed by the Central Pollution Control Board, the India Meteorological Department and the state pollution control boards.
