Delhi Pollution Crisis: Centre Plans To Deploy Japanese Tech To Reduce Dust Particle Emissions | India News

Last Updated:December 24, 2025, 17:42 IST The Centre plans to introduce advanced Japanese technology to significantly reduce the emission of dust particles in the air. Delhi pollution. (File) The Union government is implementing a comprehensive strategy to combat the escalating issue of air pollution, government sources told CNN News18. The Centre plans to introduce advanced Japanese technology to significantly reduce the emission of dust particles in the air. Additionally, the government is set to adopt Japanese demolition and construction methods that effectively limit dust during such activities, which are major contributors to urban air pollution. The new technology aims to cut airborne dust particles at their source, thereby improving air quality in affected cities. In conjunction with these measures, the government is also accelerating its push for electric vehicles (EVs) as part of its long-term strategy to reduce vehicular emissions.

AMS Data Reveals Charged Particle Variations in Heliosphere Over Solar Cycle

AMS Data Reveals Charged Particle Variations in Heliosphere Over Solar Cycle

Variations in charged particles moving through the heliosphere over an 11-year solar cycle have been identified by researchers analysing data from the Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer (AMS) aboard the International Space Station. Shifts in the heliospheric magnetic field and their impact on particle movement have been examined, with trends observed in antiproton and cosmic nuclei fluxes. The findings are based on 11 years of data collected by the AMS, highlighting the influence of solar modulation on cosmic rays. Charged Particle Behaviour in the Heliosphere According to two research papers published in Physical Review Letters, fluctuations in the heliospheric magnetic field affect the movement and interaction of charged particles within the heliosphere. These particles originate from both the sun and galactic cosmic rays (GCRs) entering from beyond the solar system. The AMS has measured variations in mass and energy, revealing how these charged particles respond to solar activity. Impact on Antiprotons and Cosmic Nuclei The study identified trends in antiproton behaviour, showing changes in flux levels based on heliospheric conditions. Data indicate that antiproton fluxes exhibit notable …

ED conducts searches across 5 cities in connection with Cloud Particle scam | Chandigarh News

ED conducts searches across 5 cities in connection with Cloud Particle scam | Chandigarh News

The Enforcement Directorate (ED) conducted search operations at eleven locations across Gurugram, Panchkula, Jind (Haryana), Mohali (Punjab), and Mumbai (Maharashtra), targeting the premises of a private company linked to the Cloud Particle scam. The raids covered properties connected to M/s Vuenow Infratech Limited, M/s Big Boy Toyz, M/s Mandeshi Foods Pvt. Ltd., M/s Planckdot Pvt. Ltd., M/s Bytecanvass LLP, M/s Skyverse, M/s Skylink Network, and other related entities and individuals. The searches, conducted under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA), led to the seizure of luxury vehicles, Rs 3 lakh in cash, incriminating documents, records, and digital devices. The ED launched the investigation following an FIR registered by Gautam Budh Nagar (Noida) Police under various sections in 2023, based on information shared by the ED under Section 66(2) of the PMLA. Preliminary findings revealed that M/s Vuenow Marketing Services Ltd. (VMSL), in collusion with associated entities, lured investors into a fraudulent scheme under the guise of selling cloud particles. The company promised high rental returns through a sale and lease-back (SLB) model, despite lacking …

“God Particle”: In Shah Rukh Khan’s House This Cricketer Has Special Place. Not Sachin Tendulkar, Virat Kohli

From hitting massive sixes, to scoring tons of runs, to producing breakthroughs, charismatic all-rounder Sunil Narine has been KKRs’ go-to man for more than a decade in the IPL, and co-owner Shah Rukh Khan was effusive in his praise for the all-rounder, calling him the “Superman” and the real energy behind the team’s success. Riding on Narine’s blazing innings, including a century and two half-tons and nearly a dozen wickets, KKR are currently second on the table. The two-time champions could well break the decade-long jinx of not winning an IPL title if Narine’s charisma continues to shine through this season. “In our house, we call him Superman, the god particle. He’s a boss on the field, a player, a bowler, a batsman, a wicketkeeper, a fielder. He’s an ‘anything’ player,” Shah Rukh told Star Sports show ‘Knight Club presents – King Khan’s Rules’ about the 35-year-old stalwart, who played a pivotal role in KKR lifting the trophy in 2012 and 2014. Narine, the highest wicket-taker in the IPL among overseas spinners, had taken 21 …

Electric Vehicles Emit More Particle Pollution Than Petrol, Diesel Cars, Claims Study

The study found that brakes and tyres on EVs release 1,850 times more particle pollution. As more people become concerned about climate change, there is a growing interest in environment-friendly transportation options. Many people believe that electric vehicles (EVs) are better for the environment than traditional petrol and diesel cars because they produce fewer greenhouse gas emissions. However, a recent study by Emission Analytics, a firm that analyses emissions data, challenges this idea. The study, featured in a Wall Street Journal op-ed, brings attention to the problem of particle pollution originating from brakes and tires in both electric and fossil fuel powered cars. The key finding is that EVs, due to their heavier weight, may release significantly more particulate matter from brakes and tyres compared to modern gas-powered vehicles with efficient exhaust filters. The study suggests this could be 1,850 times greater. The concern lies in tyre wear, with Emission Analytics pointing out that EVs’ heavier weight causes tyres to deteriorate faster, releasing harmful chemicals into the air. This is because most tires are made …
