Delhi's second smog tower at Gandhi Nagar market

NEW DELHI: East Delhi MP Gautam Gambhir on Thursday inaugurated Delhi's second anti-smog tower at the Gandhi Nagar market to help improve air quality in the area.

The tower stands at a height of 12 feet and is supposed to cover an area of 1,000 sqms - delivering 2 lakh metre-per-cube of clean air each day, officials said. Gambhir had installed a similar air-purifying tower in Lajpat Nagar in January.

"I know that these air purifiers will not solve the problem completely but something has to be done," said Gambhir while inaugurating the tower alongside Delhi BJP president Adesh Gupta.
