Delhi Air Pollution: The air of Delhi-NCR has become poisonous. The condition of Delhi has worsened due to dense fog and haze. Delhiites are having difficulty breathing due to air pollution. It seems that the entire Delhi-NCR has become a gas chamber. There is pollution everywhere from Delhi, Noida, Ghaziabad to Gurugram.

The air quality is at a dangerous level. Delhi was hit by dense fog on Tuesday morning. The air quality level reached 500, which is the worst level of this season

Air emergency in Delhi

Delhi-NCR has been put under lockdown. Air pollution has made breathing difficult. The situation has become dire from Delhi, Gurugram to Noida. Today, the AQI has crossed 500 in many areas of Delhi. Now Delhi's pollution will be reduced by artificial rain.

Gopal Rai said to the Center - please call a meeting

The Delhi government Minister Gopal Rai said that we are saddened that last year when the emergency came, we had a meeting with the experts of IIT and they said that permission of this department would be needed. Last year there was less time. I sent the first letter on 30 August, the second on 10 October, the third letter on 23 October and after that after a long request, I also said in a virtual meeting with the environment minister and Agriculture Minister that a meeting should be called.

Only solution, is artificial rain

There are only two solutions to this, either the wind should blow so fast or artificial rain and natural rain should occur, only then this blanket of smog can be broken. Whether artificial rain will happen or not or how it will happen will be decided later but they did not even call a meeting. I want to tell the PM that you should intervene. The whole country is troubled by this emergency. Tell your minister to call a meeting. If you cannot call for a solution to the smog, then we need a solution to the smog. Prime Minister should immediately instruct him and take action on this.

Artificial rain will break the smog blanket

Delhi's Environment Minister Gopal Rai said that for the last three days, smog blanket is spread everywhere in North India, be it Delhi, Punjab, Haryana, UP. Due to this, pollution particles PM 10 and PM 2.5 are not dispersing. It is having a bad effect on the health of children and the elderly.

In such a situation, GRAP 4 rules have been implemented in Delhi and NCR. In Delhi, we are trying to put restrictions on vehicles to reduce vehicle pollution. We talked to experts about how the smog blanket can be broken. I think the time has come to get artificial rain to break this smog blanket. For this, I am writing a letter to Union Environment Minister Bhupendra Yadav.

Unable to breathe, eyes are also burning

Even though people are having trouble breathing due to pollution. People are also struggling with problems like eye irritation and cough. A local resident named Umashankar said that there is a lot of trouble due to pollution. At this time there is difficulty in breathing and there is also burning in the eyes. He said that this situation is very dangerous. A passenger standing at the bus stand said that there are a lot of problems due to pollution. There is a lot of difficulty in breathing, burning sensation in the eyes. The government should pay serious attention to this.

Who is most at risk from pollution?

The situation is continuously worsening due to air pollution in the country's capital Delhi. On Tuesday morning, the Air Quality Index (AQI) reached 498. Due to this dangerous level of pollution, people are facing difficulty in breathing, irritation in the eyes and other health problems. The situation regarding air pollution has become very worrying.

People are now going out of the house wearing masks, so that they can avoid pollution. According to experts, AQI being close to 500 shows that the number of toxic particles in the air has become so high that it is seriously harmful to health,

BJP attacks Kejriwal government on Delhi pollution

On pollution in Delhi, BJP MP Manoj Tiwari said, 'It is like imposing an emergency. Aam Aadmi Party and Arvind Kejriwal's government have made mistakes, but the people of Delhi are suffering the consequences. I think now we all need to wake up. We are trying to spread awareness about wearing masks, but a concrete solution needs to be found which only BJP can provide… I urge everyone to wear masks for the next one month and give BJP a chance in the future so that we can keep Delhi away from wearing mask.
