DNA: Now we show you the effect of the news shown in DNA. We had shown you on Wednesday that even though the Delhi government has talked about taking seriousness regarding pollution, it has implemented GRAP-4 rules.

Under the GRAP-4 rule, movement of diesel vehicles, especially trucks, is stopped in Delhi.
