A day before Diwali, air pollution levels in Delhi spiked, with eight monitoring stations reporting 'very poor' air quality. The overall Air Quality Index (AQI) rose to 278 at 9 am, up from 268 the day before. Despite a slight improvement from Tuesday, when the AQI was 304, the city remained in the 'poor' category.
Data from the Central Pollution Control Board showed that out of 36 monitoring stations, eight—Anand Vihar, Ashok Vihar, Aya Nagar, Bawana, Jahangirpuri, Mundka, Vivek Vihar, and Wazirpur—recorded 'very poor' AQI levels in the morning.
