As the national capital region woke up to a thick blanket of smog today morning, tweets about pollution in Delhi-NCR started pouring in thick and fast. Many took to Twitter to complain about the poor visibility and the deteriorating air quality in Delhi. Others addressed their tweets to the central and state government and asked them to look for a solution to the smog problem which, in 2016, had forced schools to remain closed for three days as the National Green Tribunal declared an environmental emergency in Delhi.
