The harsh reality is that nothing substantial was being done to address the air pollution problem choking Delhi every year, the Supreme Court said today. The court said no one wants to prosecute those violating orders of the Commission for Air Quality Management, tasked with tackling air pollution in the national capital.

"Everybody knows that except discussion nothing is happening. That is the harsh reality of this," Justice AS Oka said. The bench also comprised Justice A Amanullah and Justice AG Masih.

Last week, the court had asked the CAQM to file an affidavit, detailing the steps it had taken to combat stubble burning, among the key reasons behind Delhi's bad air days.
