According to the social reporter of Fars news agency, Sudeh Najafi, head of the Health Committee of Tehran City Council, in his remarks before his order in the Tehran City Council hall, pointed out the issue of air pollution in Tehran and said: As a member of the council, I apologize for the situation that happened to the citizens. . The duties of city management are specified in the Clean Air Law, and we in the city council allocated 30% of the total budget this year to transportation.

The member of Tehran city council stated that the municipal organization has paid its share to the government regarding air pollution and said: Unfortunately, the government not only did not allocate a budget, but also neglected to fulfill its legal duties regarding the clean air law.

He said: In the closed meeting on Sunday, the issue of air pollution was followed up and a report was presented on the state of public transportation.

The member of the Tehran city council continued: The duties of the organizations are specified in the Clean Air Law, among its examples is the development of the green belt, to which the village councils and municipalities are obliged to allocate 20% of their resources.

Najafi said: based on the administrative structure, city management cannot create duties or supervise other organizations and ministries; For example, we cannot tell the Ministry of Oil and Security why you did not change the amount of fuel in factories and large industries.

Emphasizing that the air pollution situation in Tehran is worrying, he said: We are witnessing its effects on the health of citizens due to the increase in the number of victims and those who refer to medical centers.

Najafi said: We should not resort to wind and rain to solve the problem of air pollution. My suggestion is to form a committee chaired by the president to solve the problem of air pollution.
