The air quality in Delhi severely deteriorated a day after Diwali with the city recording nine times higher pollution level than the normal.
The Respirable Suspended Particulate Matter (RSPM), which directly affects breathing, was at 531 mg per cubic metre, more than five times higher than the normal level leaving many at risk of respiratory problems.
A warning was issued by Gufran Beig, chief scientist at the Indian Institute of Tropical Meteorology earlier this week based for the first time on India's newly launched national Air Quality Index. The warning was significant as New Delhi dismissed a World Health Organization study in May which found the capital to have the world's worst air pollution.
