Air Quality in Mangalore is Good Compared to Other Cities in The Country: Pollution Control Board

The air quality in Mangalore has remained good compared to other cities in the country as per the figures compiled by the pollution control board. The level of quality has remained consistent and pollution was not too much even during the Diwali celebration. Dusty air was seen at a few spots on the fringes of the city around a month ago but stayed that way for a week, but the environment is now clear thanks to the rain that followed.

Officials claim that the climate is no longer a concern because the city has more greenery and more plants are being planted wherever possible to keep the environment cleaner. The Mangalore Smart City Project has deployed measuring machines in five locations to keep track of air quality which is located in the corporation building at Lalbagh, the town hall in Hampankatta, near Ambedkar Circle, the block education office in Bolar, and near Crescent School in Bunder. The Pollution Control Board receives data from the command and control center directly.
