American Ambassador to India Kenneth Juster on Friday met Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal, who sought more cooperation from the US in fighting pollution in the national capital, a government statement on Friday stated.
Mr Kejriwal informed Mr Juster about the agreement between the Delhi government and the University of Washington to combat pollution during the meeting at the Delhi Secretariat.
