# Ambient air quality Monitoring over Rural areas using Indigenous Technology (AMRIT)
This project aims to support rural AQ monitoring. The objectives of this project are to create micro airsheds within the different states to effectively manage the AQ at the district level by understanding the various sources' contributions. Furthermore, the rural AQ data from the project will be utilized for science and policy development for better rural AQ management plans to avoid adverse impacts on citizens' health. The project will create the research facility using indigenous technology with the support of two start-ups: Respirer and Airveda.
