跟进：德里两名部长下令所辖部门五成员工居家办公，空气质量指数一度达403「严重」级
印度首都德里空气污染持续恶化之际，德里环境部长 Manjinder Singh Sirsa 与卫生部长 Pankaj Kumar Singh 已下令各自所辖部门实行五成员工居家办公，以减少前往政府办公室的车辆与排放；医院员工等基本服务人员不受此安排限制。印度多家媒体援引德里政府官员报道了这一决定。
这一安排与德里11月1日生效的冬季行动计划相衔接：计划规定政府部门到岗人数不得超过总人数的五成，其余员工居家办公，行政秘书与部门负责人须照常到岗，并可为保障基本服务连续运转而召回员工。此前，空气质量管理委员会（CAQM）已于10月30日下令，11月5日至20日期间，德里及周边国家首都地区五个县的政府与私营办公室同样实行到岗不超过五成的安排，工业单位与基本服务除外。
德里空气质量指数11月13日早间一度升至403、进入「严重」级，周五下午4时的24小时平均值为373；周六上午9时读数为348，全市59个监测站中有7个进入「严重」级，官方预警系统预计未来几天还将进一步恶化。德里11月13日已超过巴基斯坦拉合尔，成为全球污染最严重的主要城市（见关联稿）。

Follow-Up: Two Delhi Ministers Order 50% of Their Departments' Staff to Work From Home as Air Quality Index Hits 403, Rated Severe
As air pollution in India's capital worsens, Delhi Environment Minister Manjinder Singh Sirsa and Health Minister Pankaj Kumar Singh have directed the departments under their charge to operate with 50 per cent of employees working from home, in order to reduce the number of vehicles travelling to government offices and limit emissions. Hospital employees and other essential-service personnel are exempt. Indian media reported the directions, citing Delhi government officials.
The move follows Delhi's Winter Action Plan, which came into effect on November 1 and caps physical attendance in government departments at 50 per cent of staff strength, with the remaining employees working from home; administrative secretaries and heads of departments must attend regularly and may summon employees where needed to keep essential services running. Separately, the Commission for Air Quality Management (CAQM) ordered on October 30 that, from November 5 to 20, government and private offices in Delhi and five surrounding National Capital Region districts likewise operate with no more than 50 per cent of staff on site, with industrial establishments and essential services exempt.
Delhi's air quality index touched 403 on the morning of November 13, in the 'severe' category, and the 24-hour average stood at 373 at 4 p.m. on Friday. At 9 a.m. on Saturday the index read 348, with seven of the city's 59 monitoring stations in the severe category, and the official early-warning system forecast further deterioration over the next few days. On November 13 Delhi overtook Lahore, Pakistan, as the most polluted major city in the world (see related story).
