Delhi's air quality saw a slight improvement on Monday morning, with the Air Quality Index (AQI) recorded at 316, which is a decrease from Sunday's AQI of 366. While this marks a positive change, the air quality still remains in the 'very poor' category, posing health risks to residents. Different areas across Delhi reported varying AQI levels, reflecting the uneven distribution of pollutants. The government has deployed water sprinklers as part of its efforts to reduce pollution and mitigate the effects of smog. A visitor from Agra noted that the smog becomes increasingly visible as one approaches Delhi, highlighting the severity of the issue. Despite these measures, the situation remains concerning, and continued efforts are needed to address the persistent problem of air pollution in the capital.
