Thick smog engulfs Delhi after Diwali celebration; air high quality stays in ‘poor’ class | Delhi Information

NEW DELHI: The nationwide capital woke as much as a thick layer of smog on Monday following the Diwali evening celebrations, as folks indulged in bursting crackers.
The aftermath resulted in extreme air pollution all through town, exacerbating the already deteriorating air high quality disaster.
The air high quality on Monday was recorded in ‘poor high quality’. The AQI in Anand Vihar was at 296, in RK Puram at 290, in Punjabi Bagh at 280 and in ITO at 263.

Regardless of a strict ban on fireworks within the nationwide capital, revelers all through town indulged in bursting firecrackers throughout Diwali evening.
Earlier on Sunday, setting minister Gopal Rai had urged everybody to not burst firecrackers and it will exacerbate the woes of the folks, who’re already struggling to breathe clear air within the metropolis.
Over the previous few days, the air high quality within the nationwide capital has slipped to alarming ranges.
