Delhi's Air Quality Deteriorates To 'SEVERE'
An EDMC truck sprinkles water on the road to curb pollution, at Anand Vihar, on November 7, 2020 in New Delhi, India. Delhi's Air Quality Index was 405, while that of Ghaziabad was 432; Greater Noida 418; Millennium City Gurugram 411, Noida 404 and Faridabad a 410. A layer of smoke and pollutants had built up over Delhi-national capital region (NCR) due to thousands of stubble fires raging in neighbouring states and local emissions such as traffic, construction and fire crackers.
