BANGKOK, March 25 (The Nation Thailand/ANN): The government insisted it was tackling dangerous PM2.5 smog as part of the national agenda, two days after being sued over pollution levels in Thailand.

On Tuesday this week, environmental groups including Greenpeace filed a lawsuit against three government agencies – the Industry Ministry, National Resources and Environment Ministry and National Environmental Board – accusing them of failing to protect citizens’ right to clean air.
