The Daily Guardian
|November 02, 2024
A thick layer of smog covered parts of Delhi on Friday, the day after Diwali, pushing the city's air quality into the 'very poor' category, according to the Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB).

Most areas in the capital recorded an Air Quality Index (AQI) over 350, raising health concerns for residents.
At around 7:00 am, Anand Vihar recorded an AQI of 395, Aya Nagar stood at 352, Jahangirpuri at 390, and Dwarka reached 376. All these areas reported 'very poor' air quality levels, posing significant health risks.
The pollution issue wasn't limited to Delhi; several other cities across India, including metropolises like Chennai and Mumbai, reported similar conditions, with smog and poor air quality affecting large areas.
The CPCB data shows significant pollution levels, especially after Diwali celebrations, raising concerns about air quality and potential health impacts nationwide.
Delhi Environment Minister Gopal Rai spoke about the preparations the Delhi government was implementing post-Diwali.
