Delhi’s air quality has once again plunged into the 'severe' category, with the Air Quality Index (AQI) recorded at 406 on Sunday afternoon. The city has been experiencing hazardous air since December 16, with a brief respite on Saturday when the AQI was 395. Despite efforts under the Graded Response Action Plan (GRAP) to tackle pollution, which includes a ban on construction, the air remains dangerously polluted. Experts warn that calm wind conditions in the coming days will hinder any immediate relief, keeping the air quality in hazardous territory for the foreseeable future.
