5. Road traffic
The SC has directed the central government along with the government of the Delhi NCR region to consider implementing ‘work from home’ for employees working in the capital.

Till further notice, schools will remain closed for the week and students will resume classes from home, while the Delhi government has directed all its employees to work-from-home.
Following in the footsteps of the Delhi government, the Haryana government has also directed its workforce to work-from-home.
The move is aimed at reducing vehicular emissions into the extremely polluted air of the national capital.
