DSS resumes sharing pollution source data

Meanwhile, Delhi's air quality deteriorated further on Sunday, with DSS data showing that the city's transport sector and neighbouring cities in the National Capital Region (NCR) added more pollution to the Capital's air than smoke from stubble burning did.

To be sure, stubble burning is yet to pick up in the upwind agrarian states, especially Punjab.

Delhi's air quality index (AQI) worsened to 325 on Sunday, from 303 a day ago, both in the "very poor" category, showed data from the Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB). Sunday's AQI is the worst so far this season. Data from DSS will help authorities tailor responses to the city's spiking levels, said experts.
