New Delhi [India], December 12 (ANI): Congress MP Deepender Hooda on Friday said that the Centre has not allocated sufficient funds to deal with the problem of air pollution, adding that Parliament must hold a debate over this matter next week.

Speaking to reporters, Hooda thanked his party leader, Rahul Gandhi, for raising the issue of air pollution in the Lok Sabha earlier in the day.

"An inadequate budget has been allocated by the government, and even this budget has not been spent by the government. Only 1% of the budget has been spent on industrial pollution. In such a situation, we repeatedly raised this issue. On behalf of Haryana, I thank Rahul Gandhi for raising this matter vociferously. We hope that the government will hold a discussion on this next week," Hooda said.
