DELHI'S AIR QUALITY PLUMMETS TO 'VERY POOR' ON DIWALI EVE: POLLUTION LEVELS LIKELY TO RISE FURTHER
The Business Guardian
|October 31, 2024
Delhi's air quality slipped into the "very poor" category on the eve of Diwali, with pollution levels expected to go up on Thursday, even as authorities said strict action will be taken against those violating the firecracker ban
-
The city's 24-hour average Air Quality Index (AQI) was recorded at 307 at 4 pm, up from 268 on Tuesday, according to the Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB).
The Indian Institute of Tropical Meteorology (IITM), Pune said the air quality in the national capital is likely to be in the "very poor" category (AQI 300 to 400) on Thursday and Friday.
The air quality may also reach the severe category on these two days in case of additional emissions from firecrackers and stubble or waste fires.
According to the Decision Support System (DSS) for Air Quality Management, if stubble burning occurs at levels similar to the last five years, it could contribute 1518 per cent to Delhi's pollution on these dates. This is exacerbated by winds from the northwest, which may carry smoke into the city.
