Even as farmers in Punjab continue to burn crop residue despite a ban on stubble burning, the Punjab pollution control board says there has been a dip in the number of cases compared to last year. The decrease has been attributed to a delay in paddy harvesting due to inclement weather, but the farmers say that in the absence of an alternate mechanism to dispose of the stubble, they will have to burn crop residue.
