BMC to use AI in pollution mitigation: CM
Mumbai: Chief minister Devendra Fadnavis on Wednesday told the legislative council that the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) has been instructed to use AI to detect dust pollution in real-time at all construction sites, including those of the government. BMC to use AI in pollution mitigation: CM Fadnavis was speaking after Shiv Sena (UBT) legislator Anil Parab claimed that no pollution mitigation measures were being taken at the site of the new high court complex in Bandra East, leading to dust pollution. “There are government and non government works in this area. Metro and bullet train projects are on. I am not against infra projects but want stricter norms,” Parab said. In response, environment minister Pankaja Munde claimed that some measures were being taken at the high court complex site, while a debris treatment plant was being set up. Congress MLC Bhai Jagtap said most construction sites don’t follow norms.
