AQI improves to ‘satisfactory’
Millennium Post Delhi
|New Delhi 04October2025
A combination of rainfall and steady winds helped Delhi avoid a sharp rise in pollution levels following Dussehra celebrations on Thursday, with the city recording improved air quality on Friday.
The 24-hour average Air Quality Index (AQI) settled at 88, placing it in the “satisfactory” category, breaking a 21-day streak of moderate or higher AQI readings. A similar weather pattern in 2022 had led to the AQI improving from 211 on Dussehra day to 79 the following day. Trends show that post-Dussehra pollution spikes have been common. Last year, the AQI jumped from 155 on Dussehra to 224 the next day, while in 2023 it rose from 220 to 243. The city recorded its worst post-Dussehra AQI in recent years on October 26, 2020, when it touched 353, classified as “very poor”.
