Leaders of various Opposition parties on Thursday staged a protest in Parliament complex over the issue of air pollution in the national capital, with Congress leader Sonia Gandhi asking the government to take action. Carrying placards, leaders of various parties raised slogans outside the Makar Dwar of Parliament asking the prime minister to stop making statements and fix the problem.

Some of the MPs also wore masks at the protest to highlight the problem of air pollution. They also carried a big banner that said ‘mausam ka mazaa lijiye’ (Enjoy the weather) carrying a picture of the PM, who had made these remarks at the start of the Winter session of Parliament.
