Officials in Delhi are to plant a wall of trees around the city to try to shield it from lethal dust storms that have cemented its position as the world’s most polluted capital. India’s forest department plans to plant more than three million saplings during the monsoon season in the hope that they will eventually serve as a natural defence against dust storms that ravaged the city this summer.
