Breaking News: Dense Fog Engulfs Delhi-NCR, Visibility Drops Sharply, Air and Rail Traffic Affected

Delhi-NCR continues to remain under a thick blanket of dense fog, severely reducing visibility and disrupting normal life. Large parts of the region are shrouded in fog, making road travel extremely challenging for commuters. Visibility has dropped drastically in several areas, with drivers struggling to see beyond 50 to 100 meters at many locations. As a result, vehicles are moving at a slow pace with headlights, fog lamps, and parking lights switched on to avoid accidents. The dense fog has also significantly impacted rail and air traffic. Several trains are running behind schedule, while reports suggest that some services may also face cancellations due to poor visibility conditions. Passengers at railway stations are experiencing delays and inconvenience. Air traffic has not remained unaffected either. Many flights operating to and from Delhi have been delayed as low visibility conditions make take-offs and landings difficult.
