As the smog in Delhi worsens, India’s Pollution Control Board advises residents to prepare for an emergency
Share on FacebookShare on TwitterShare on LinkedInShare via TelegramSend To WhatsApp

The center’s pollution control board on Friday ordered states and local bodies to be in “complete readiness” for emergency measures to tackle New Delhi’s worsening smog conditions due to a drop-in temperature and wind speeds.

 

A thick haze of toxic smog hung over Delhi, exacerbated by a spike in the burning of crop waste in surrounding farmlands. It reduced visibility and the Air Quality Index (AQI) hit 470 on a scale of 500, according to the pollution control board. This level of pollution means the air will affect healthy people and seriously impact those with existing diseases.
