Capital Delhi and Noida are once again seen wrapped in a white sheet of toxic smog. As soon as the restrictions of GRAP-4 (GRAP-4) are removed, pollution has started showing its aggressive form again. Due to the stoppage of air movement, pollutants have accumulated in the atmosphere due to which the Air Quality Index (AQI) has reached over 400 in many areas of Delhi.
Severe areas of Delhi
According to Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB) data at 7 am, the air condition is at hazardous levels in many parts of Delhi:
- Vivek Vihar: 424 (Worst)
- Jahangirpuri: 417
- Narela: 413
- Anand Vihar: 410
- Rohini: 409
- Bawana: 404
It is clear from these figures that the air of Delhi is once again not worth breathing. Experts say that the slow speed of air is the biggest reason for this increasing pollution.
