India today extended the decision to suspend the reopening of schools and universities in the capital, New Delhi, until further notice, due to bad weather and an increase in air pollution.

The ban on commercial trucks entering the capital has also been extended until the twenty-sixth of this month, with the exception of those carrying food commodities.

On the 13th of this month, New Delhi decided to close its schools for a week due to air pollution, which has reached alarming levels in recent days.

Government data showed pollution levels in the megacity were 437 on a scale of 500 of the Air Quality Index, nearly eight times higher than the global average.
