Delhi Air Pollution: Delhi's climate worsens before Diwali, AQI reaches poor category; There is little chance of relief now

Posted on 27th Oct 2023 10:24 am by rohit kumar

The cold winds coming from the hilly areas have spoiled the climate of the capital Delhi. According to Safar India, the overall air quality in Delhi remains in the 'poor' category, with the air quality index (AQI) recorded at 249 on Friday morning. To reduce the impact of increasing pollution, the second phase of the Graded Response Action Plan (GRAP) has been implemented in Delhi.

 

According to the latest SAFAR data, the air quality around Delhi University was recorded at 307 (very poor) this morning, while the air quality in the IIT area in New Delhi was 273, and Lodhi Road was recorded at 218. Also, according to the data, AQI was recorded at 208 (poor) in Noida and 252 (poor) in Gurugram.

 

To reduce pollution, water was sprayed from anti-smog guns in the Anand Vihar area on Thursday. As stubble burning continues in parts of Punjab and Haryana, the air quality in the national capital has deteriorated over the past few days. According to statistics, more than 2,500 cases of stubble burning have been reported so far this year. However, the number of farm fires is better than in the last two years.
