Corroboration: 2 independent outlets

The Gurgaon Chamber of Commerce and Industry (GCCI) urged the Commission for Air Quality Management (CAQM) on Friday, 9 October, to extend the camera installation deadline for industrial premises from 31 October to 30 November 2026. Citing practical, technical and logistical challenges, GCCI president Vikas Jain said the short window could affect procurement and deployment of competent installation agencies. Separately, CAQM summoned Haryana's transport secretary-in-charge and transport commissioner on 16 October after the state failed to install automatic number plate recognition (ANPR) cameras at 2,780 fuel stations in NCR districts by the 30 September deadline. The commission said no installation work had commenced as of 30 September, and warned of action under the CAQM Act, 2021, including imprisonment up to five years and a fine up to Rs 1 crore.
