The Delhi-NCR region is facing a public health emergency as the air quality plummets to ‘severe’. There are six Air Quality Index categories- Good, Satisfactory, Moderately polluted, Poor, Very Poor, and Severe. The range for severe is 401-500. In many places, the air quality is beyond the index level of severe, that is beyond 500. Pollution is of course at an unhealthy level all year round in Delhi, but it spikes in October and November.
What has the response to combat air pollution over the years given us? Is it the lack of big ideas or the failure of enforcement that keeps our national capital dangerously polluted? We asked Anumita Roychowdhury. She is the Executive Director, Research and Advocacy, Centre for Science and Environment.
