Singh is acting as an amicus curiae for the Supreme Court in pollution-related cases. She raised worries about air pollution during the winter months, as well as agricultural residue burning.
The bench noted that the amicus curiae has expressed serious concerns about air pollution as winter approaches, as well as agricultural residue burning. According to PTI, the amicus curiae has also said that these concerns are now under the jurisdiction of the CAQM.
