New Delhi: 11th November 2024
Delhi’s Air Quality Index (AQI) remained at 409 on Monday, therefore retaining its classification as a “very poor” air quality city.
The AQI in a portion of the city that is still over the city average improved slightly from Sunday, but it was still well outside of the safe ranges.
As of Monday at 7:30 am, the Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB) reports that Delhi’s average Air Quality Index (AQI) was 347.
Delhi’s Jahangirpuri recorded the highest AQI, 409. The AQI stayed between 300 and 400 in the majority of the national capital, with some regions over 400.
The month-long anti-open burning campaign began in the nation’s capital on November 6 as Delhi-NCR continues to experience deteriorating air quality as winter approaches.
In the Delhi-NCR region, the AQI values for the following cities were recorded: 165 in Haryana, 237 in Noida, 242 in Ghaziabad, Uttar Pradesh, 300 in Greater Noida and 302 in Gurugram
