प्रदूषण की जकड़ में मुंबई, कई इलाकों में AQI 150 के पार

With the monsoon making an early departure, Mumbai’s natural rain-cleaning mechanism has ground to a halt, causing air pollution to surge across the city. High-rise developments are blocking sea breezes, while heavy traffic, widespread construction, and waste burning have pushed air quality indices above 150 in several localities. Experts warn that stagnant conditions and seasonal weather shifts could further deteriorate air quality, calling for long-term action on pollution sources.
