Hindustan Times
|December 26, 2023
The national capital's pollution levels on Monday improved marginally to "very poor" after three straight days in the "severe" zone of the air quality index (AQI).
-
Delhi clocked a 24-hour average AQI of 383 on Monday, as against 411 on Sunday.
To be sure, the pollution in the upper reaches of the "very poor" zone is still way above the safe limits, and exposes residents to a range of severe cardiac and respiratory ailments.
The AQI was 450 on Saturday, and 409 on Friday.
Cities across the National Capital Region (NCR) saw a similar drop in pollution. Noida's AQI improved from 368 to 316, Gurugram's dipped from 304 to 298, Greater Noida's improved from 376 to 336 and Ghaziabad's from 360 to 280.
