Delhi Chokes As Air Quality Dips: What Is The Situation In Other Cities? | WATCH

Delhi's air quality turned 'very poor' on Tuesday morning amid an increase in stubble burning and bursting of crackers on Diwali night. Noida, which is part of the national capital region along with Delhi and Gurugram, recorded an AQI of 342. The System of Air Quality and Weather Forecasting and Research (SAFAR) had earlier predicted that the air quality may plunge to 'severe' levels on Diwali itself and will remain in the red zone for one more day. Noida registered an AQI of 342 as of 6:30 am on Tuesday morning. Delhi came in second with an AQI of 323. Air quality in the range of 301-400 can cause “respiratory illness on prolonged exposure”. The air quality in Noida and Delhi is just one step away from becoming 'severe' (401-500) which “affects healthy people and seriously impacts those with existing illnesses”. #delhipollution #pollution #diwali2022 #6pmprime #nabilajamal Subscribe to India Today for NEW VIDEOS EVERY DAY and make sure to enable Push Notifications so you'll never miss a new video.
