Air pollution levels creep up in Delhi

IndiaTimes Monday, 20 November 2023
Air quality in Delhi and its suburbs has further deteriorated, with no significant relief expected in the coming days. The city's Air Quality Index (AQI) stood at 338 on Monday morning, worsening from 301 the previous evening. Neighbouring areas also recorded a decline in air quality. The Centre had previously lifted certain restrictions due to an improvement in pollution levels, but other measures, such as a ban on non-essential construction work, will continue. Vehicular emissions and secondary inorganic aerosols were identified as major contributors to Delhi's air pollution.
