Modernization should not lead to destruction. It must improve the quality of life, said Chief Minister Sheila Dikshit at a function on International Day for the preservation of Ozone Layer.

Speaking on the occasion, the Chief Minister underlined the need to work without ozone-depleting substances. In case the ozone layer gets depleted, increased penetration of ultraviolet radiation will have profound impact on all the living creatures, including human and plant life.
