Mumbai Air Pollution Reaches Catastrophic Levels, AQI Touches 250-300 In Parts | India Today Report

Описание: Mumbai is experiencing a severe air quality crisis, with AQI levels reaching 250-300 in parts of the city, comparable to pollution levels typically seen in Delhi. A longtime Mumbai resident describes the city as living in a 'dust bowl' due to approximately 250 properties undergoing redevelopment in just a one-kilometre radius between Khar West and Bandra. The resident reports frequent viral infections, now twice within three months, directly attributed to dust and air pollutants. Medical professionals are prescribing nasal sprays and antihistamines to combat dust-related health issues. The resident describes carrying a wearable ionizer and mask daily, stating 'you cannot breathe clean air in Bombay city anymore, or its suburbs.' Construction activity, including metro development, coastal road projects, and widespread redevelopment, combined with slower-than-usual wind patterns, has contributed to the crisis. The resident calls for the Maharashtra government to address the issue on a war footing, emphasising that the city's traditional reliance on Arabian Sea breezes to clear pollution is no longer effective.
