										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The Haryana government has ordered that schools in four districts near the national capital remain closed until Wednesday. Because of the poisonous fog and poor air quality in Delhi for over a week, all government and private schools in the National Capital Territory (NCT) of Delhi have been forced to close.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>This directive came after the Delhi government issued similar steps the day before. Construction operations, stubble burning, and municipal rubbish burning have all been prohibited in Haryana&#8217;s Gurugram, Faridabad, Sonepat, and Jhajjar districts.</p>
