Delhi air quality plunges amidst protests for clean air...
In India, Delhi’s air quality plunges into the ‘severe’ category, with an AQI of 391, as areas like Bawana (436) and Patparganj (425) record hazardous levels, according to the CPCB. Despite Stage II of the GRAP being in effect, pollution worsens post-Deepavali. Protesters at India Gate call it a “health emergency,” demanding a clean-air policy and accusing authorities of inaction and data manipulation, as residents, children, and elderly struggle to breathe.
