Delhi’s air quality worsened on October 27, reaching the ‘severe’ level at some spots. Anand Vihar recorded an AQI of 405, while Bawana’s AQI hit 398, according to the Central Pollution Control Board. Thick smog reduced visibility and made breathing difficult for residents. The government advised people, especially the elderly and those with health issues, to limit outdoor activities and check air quality before going out. Meanwhile, toxic foam on the Yamuna River continues to cause health concerns, with political debate intensifying over pollution management. Environmental experts warn that the air quality may worsen as Diwali approaches.
