Breaking: Delhi Air Turns Hazardous as AQI Crosses 400, Thick Smog Blankets NCR

Air pollution levels in Delhi have worsened sharply, pushing the city into the hazardous category as the Air Quality Index crossed 400 at several locations. According to Central Pollution Control Board data, areas like Akshardham recorded an AQI of 419, while Parliament Street stood at 356. A thick layer of smog has engulfed Delhi-NCR, drastically reducing visibility. Iconic landmarks such as Rashtrapati Bhavan and India Gate were barely visible, forcing vehicles to drive with headlights on even during daytime. Experts say the situation is a combined effect of pollution and dense fog triggered by western disturbance and calm winds. The weather department has warned that smoggy conditions and low visibility may persist for the next few days.
