After weeks of parents, students, and local residents rallying on the streets against Delhi’s hazardous air quality, the city government on Wednesday finally initiated dialogue with the protest leaders. Environment Minister Manjinder Singh Sirsa met citizen groups, environmental activists and volunteers at the Delhi Secretariat, in what many participants described as a long-delayed but positive step.
