Ministry of Health and Population urges not to do morning walk

The Ministry of Health has urged not to do morning walk in Kathmandu.

On Tuesday, the ministry said air pollution could affect public health. "If you are going for a morning walk or going out for physical exercise, let's stop for a few days," said a statement issued by ministry's co-spokesperson Dr Sameer Kumar Adhikari.

The Ministry has said not to use garbage and not to drive vehicles unless absolutely necessary. Air quality on Monday and Tuesday reached over 400 AQI.
