New Delhi is the world's most polluted major city, Swiss group IQAir said in its live rankings.
Almost 60,000 vehicles and more than 7,500 building sites were issued fines, officials said, as the Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB) rated the conditions on Nov 4 as "very poor", with a score of 373 on its index that rates levels from zero to 50 as "good".
