Delhi’s air quality dips to ’severe’ category as the city engulfed in thick smog

Live Mint  

Delhiites woke up on Thursday to a thick envelope of smog as air quality in the national capital and in adjoining regions, dipped into severe category again. The Air Quality Index in the national capital at 10 am was at 418 and at 7 am the recorded AQI stood at 408. Earlier on Wednesday, Delhi's air quality improved marginally owing to relatively better meteorological conditions, with the Commission for Air Quality Management saying there is no immediate need to implement curbs, such as a ban on the entry of trucks and a closure of educational institutions, under the fourth stage of the Graded Response Action Plan. North Delhi Air Quality recorded the poorest as almost all the stations in the region displayed AQI above 400.
