Thick smog blankets Taj Mahal as severe pollution persists across India
Toxic smog shrouded India's iconic Taj Mahal in Agra on Nov. 14, 2024, rendering it barely visible from the surrounding gardens of the 17th-century monument. The dense haze also enveloped the Golden Temple, Sikhism's holiest shrine, in Amritsar, similarly obscuring it from view. Officials cited high pollution levels, humidity, still winds, and a temperature drop as factors intensifying the haze. Pollution levels in Delhi are expected to remain in the 'severe' category on Friday (November 15), before possibly improving to 'very poor' (300–400), according to the Earth Sciences Ministry.
