More than 62,000 people supported this petition.

Another petitioner from Gurgaon wrote an open letter to the PM, Delhi CM, and the Ministry of Environment & Forest demanding to seek necessary steps to curb the pollution in NCR on a war footing. In his letter, he explained the major reasons for the pollution.
Considering the opinions of residents of NCR, Delhi government wanted to take immediate steps to curb the pollution. In this regard, it has sought viable suggestions from citizens.
Kapil Mishra, one of the cabinet ministers in Delhi government said the pollution in Delhi crossed the safe limit and became a Public Health Emergency. He added that he had seen various petitions and appeals on Change.org on Delhi pollution.
