LAHORE (The Thursday Times) — Punjab Environment Protection Agency ka kehna hai ke Diwali ke baad 24 ghanton mein Bharat se aane wali hawa taqriban aadhe Punjab tak pohanchi aur sooba bhar mein bareek zarraat ki aloodgi barh gayi, jabke senior wazir Marriyum Aurangzeb ne zor diya ke smog ko siyasat se door rakha jaye.
Marriyum Aurangzeb ne Budh ko Lahore mein press conference mein kaha: “Smog siyasi masla nahin. Yeh ek scientific, mahooliyati aur sehat-e-aama ka challenge hai”, jabke Lahore, Multan, aur deegar shehar gehri dhund mein doobe rahe.
Budh ki raat Lahore 358 ke air quality index ke sath ek baar phir duniya ke aloodatareen bare shehron ki fehrist mein sar-e-fehrist raha, jabke hafte ke aaghaz mein yeh taqriban 600 tak pohanch gaya tha.
Idare ke nataij
Idare ne 8 se 10 November tak hawa ki naql-o-harkat, satellite mushahidat aur monitoring data ka jaiza liya, jis ke mutabiq Bharat se aane wali hawa ne pichhle 24 ghanton mein taqriban 50 fisad Punjab ko, aur 9 November ki subah 6 baje se 12 ghanton mein 39 fisad ko mutasir kiya.
Idare ki modelling ke mutabiq Diwali ki raat sarhad paar chhori gayi hawa Amritsar se Lahore taqriban do ghanton mein, Multan qareeban 11 ghanton mein aur Faisalabad 12 ghanton mein pohanch sakti thi. Wagah border station par bareek zarraat (PM2.5) ki satah 275 fisad barhi, jo raat 3 se 4 baje ke darmiyan sab se zyada rahi, jabke shehar ke maghrib mein Safari Park station par 15 fisad izafa record hua.
Idare ke mutabiq Lahore ka index 8 November ko 366 se barh kar 9 November ki subah 9 baje 440 tak pohanch gaya. Punjab ki secretary tahaffuz-e-mahol Salwat Saeed ne kaha ke Lahore aur Amritsar donon par fazai zarraat ki paimaish is nateeje ki taeed karti hai ke aloodah hawa sarhad paar kar ke aayi.
Idare ne yeh nahin kaha ke sarhad paar aloodgi wahid wajah thi. Us ke mutabiq maqami ikhraj aur mausam ne bhi hawa ke mayaar par asar dala, aur Marriyum Aurangzeb ne Bharat se aane wali hawaon, Diwali ki aatish baazi, faslon ki baqiyat jalane, kam darja-e-hararat aur sust hawaon ko aloodgi mein izafe ki wujoohat mein shumar kiya.
Androon-e-mulk pesh raft ke daawe
Marriyum Aurangzeb ne sarkari adad-o-shumar ka hawala dete hue kaha ke saans, seene aur gale ki shikayat ke sath bunyadi marakiz-e-sehat aane walon ki tadaad 2023 ke muqable mein 69 fisad aur sanvi aspatalon mein 21 fisad kam hui hai.
Unhon ne kaha ke 9 hazar sanati units ne dhuein ke ikhraj ki nigrani ke nizam nasb kiye, 14 hazar eenton ke bhatte saaf tar zigzag technology par muntaqil hue, 59 sanati air quality monitor kaam kar rahe hain aur 60 lakh gaariyon ko fitness certificate jari kiye gaye. Un ke mutabiq sooba mein faslon ki baqiyat jalane mein 27 fisad tak aur Lahore ke gird 85 fisad kami aayi.
Unhon ne kaha ke November ka pehla nisf smog ke liye sab se nazuk waqt hota hai, kyunke darja-e-hararat ka ultao, nami aur kamzor dhoop aloodgi ko zameen ke qareeb rok lete hain. Punjab 10 sala action plan par amal kar raha hai, aur wazir ne shehriyon, kisanon, aur sanat se taawun ki appeal ki.
Sooba ne is hafte dhund ke bawajood smog ki izafi chhuttiyan na dene ka faisla karte hue school khule rakhe hain, jabke New Delhi ko Diwali ke baad apni aloodgi ki hangami soorat-e-haal ka samna raha.
