Delhi air quality worsens to 384 as government faces Supreme Court scrutiny over pollution measures
Delhi's air quality has worsened to an Air Quality Index (AQI) of 384, classified as 'very poor,' up from 373 the previous day. Many areas recorded even higher levels, with some reaching 'severe' status. The Delhi government has called a review meeting to assess its Winter Action Plan. This follows criticism from the Supreme Court regarding the ineffective enforcement of the firecracker ban during Diwali celebrations. The court has demanded explanations from the Delhi government and the Delhi Police Commissioner about the lack of compliance with pollution control measures. It has requested a detailed report on actions taken to address air quality issues.
