Use Our AQI Monitor to Track Air Pollution This Diwali

As Delhi chokes, find out the Air Quality Index of your area on this map,

It’s that time of the year again. Diwali is here and so is the Delhi pollution with the respiratory issues. Even after Supreme Courts ban on all existing crackers, allowing only “green crackers” which aren’t available in the market, we could hear crackers being burst in the days leading to Diwali in some areas of Delhi NCR.

On 6 November, a day before Diwali, Delhi’s air quality was 418 which is “hazardous” at 11am. While other major Indian cities like Mumbai, Bangalore and Kolkata were either around or below 100.

The situation has been bad for more than two weeks now. And earlier, CPCB had warned that it may only get worse towards Diwali. Here’s a monitor where you can check the level of pollution in your city and area.
