A look at Delhi's air pollution crisis | The Issue 

The descriptors used to describe Delhi’s pollution don’t change, because the pollution menace unfortunately, also does not change. Why does Delhi then face such extreme pollution, that renders it a hazard for the close to 2.9 crore people living in and around it? It’s an amalgamation of several different factors that our National Capital unfortunately just has to deal with. And all of these reasons collectively add to the problem of pollution in the capital around a 2-month window of toxic AQI.  

This pollution while bad for all living in the city, affects people of different age, gender and social strata very differently. Numerous studies have found the exacerbated effect that pollution has on women and children, and this effect is worsened particularly for those coming from a marginalised background. Lack of access to resources also determines how the pollution phenomenon affects people.  

In these stories we try to understand the reasons behind Delhi’s hazardous air, as well as the varying ways in which it affects different citizens. Watch ‘The Issue' editorji’s show that takes a look at social issues that need dire attention, and have been often neglected from mainstream narratives.

Delhi: did firecracker use rise or fall on Diwali 2022? Minister Gopal Rai reveals

Delhi is seeing its best air quality on the day after Diwali in 5 years, according to the Aam Aadmi Party government.

Delhi is seeing its best air quality on the day after Diwali in 5 years, according to the Aam Aadmi Party government. Delhi Environment Minister Gopal Rai claimed that the air quality index (AQI) on 25 October 2022 stood at 323, compared to 462 last year.
Rai claimed that incidents of bursting of firecrackers on Diwali in Delhi dropped by 30 per cent this year. "People of Delhi were very thoughtful on Diwali this year and I want to thank them," Rai said on the sidelines of an event where he launched 150 mobile anti-smog guns.
He said the anti-smog guns will be deployed at 40 spots across the capital where air pollution is high. However, he warned that AQI of 323 is "still worrying" and that air pollution will rise in the coming days.
Rai credited the Punjab government for controlling stubble burning in the state without support from the Centre. He claimed that farm fires had increased in Haryana and Uttar Pradesh.

Following the dreadful demolition of the Supertech Twin Towers in Uttar Pradesh's Noida, authorities monitored the air quality index (AQI) of surrounding areas to analyse the harmful effects of the massive dust cloud released by the explosion.
With the demolition in Noida's Sector 93A creating around 80,000 tonnes of debris, the Noida Authority said that air quality in sectors 91, 125, 62, 1, and 116 were monitored.
Officials said that even after the demolition, AQI and PM 10 levels remained within acceptable limits, and there was no major change.
Doctors had warned that the huge clouds of dust released from the explosive demolition might cause health problems, especially for those suffering from respiratory diseases.
Doctors said most dust particles have a diameter of 5 microns or less, and can remain suspended in the air for a few days in the absence of strong winds and rain. Massive dust pollution can lead to itching in the eyes, nose and skin; coughing; sneezing; breathing difficulty; lung infection; nasal congestion; asthmatic attacks and aggravate heart problems.
