Delhi’s air quality has improved, with the AQI recorded at 161 in the 'moderate' category, according to the CPCB. The Supreme Court has allowed the withdrawal of GRAP-IV measures, which were implemented to combat severe pollution. The Graded Response Action Plan (GRAP) had restricted the use of older diesel vehicles and heavy goods vehicles, except for essential services. Delhi faced severe pollution post-Diwali, causing health concerns for residents. The city’s air quality was previously in the 'very poor' and 'severe' categories due to stubble burning and weather conditions. Authorities continue monitoring to maintain better air quality.
