A thick smog is choking India's capital, Delhi. The air pollution is getting worse, causing people's eyes to burn and coughs to increase.

Experts blamed meteorological conditions that trap pollutants near the surface for the rise in the pollution level

Delhiites on Thursday inhaled the most polluted Oct air in three years. The AQI deteriorated to 373 on the higher end of the very poor category as a toxic haze hung over the city. It was recorded at 279 (poor) a day earlier.

Delhi's air pollution is the worst it's been in three years. The main causes are local pollution and weather conditions trapping the dirty air.

Out of the 38 monitoring stations in the city, 37 record 'very poor' air quality with readings above 300

A blanket of haze shrouded the national capital on Thursday, with people complaining of eye irritation and cough, as air quality stood close to the "severe" level. Experts blamed meteorological conditions that trap pollutants near the surface for the rise in the pollution level.

Process ‘highly dependent on right atmospheric conditions’: IIT-Kanpur

Thick haze shrouds city even as AQI stays ‘poor’; experts blame temperature inversion, stagnant air and weak wind dispersion for trapped pollutants.

The Indian capital has seen no rainfall following a cloud seeding experiment. Authorities hoped to reduce toxic smog. Experts explain why the project, which cost millions of Indian rupees, failed to deliver results.

3 of City’s 4 Air Monitoring Stations Not Working, AQI In ‘Moderate’ Zone.

Gurgaon's air quality readings are misleading as two of its four monitoring stations are offline, distorting the true pollution levels. This data gap, occurring during peak farm fire season, hinders public health awareness and regulatory action, raising concerns about governance and preparedness.

The budget for cloud seeding is over Rs 3.2 crore for five trials, translating to approximately Rs 64 lakh per sortie.

Delhi carried out two back-to-back cloud-seeding trials on Tuesday, hoping to trigger light showers that could scrub pollutants from the air

The cloud-seeding operation is part of a pilot project led by IIT-Kanpur to tackle air pollution. Two trials were held at 12.15 pm and 3.55 pm

There has been an improvement in the air quality in Delhi. The Air Quality Index (AQI) has come down to the 'Poor' category, which was earlier 'Very Poor'.
