Delhi Pollution Survey

The skyrocketing pollution in Delhi is directly impacting people's health, with 69% of families in the capital and NCR reporting at least one person suffering, a survey has revealed.

A staggering 60 percent of the people living in New Delhi and Mumbai are considering relocation due to the worsening air pollution in both the cities, said a new survey.

Around 32 percent families are planning to burst firecrackers in Delhi, while 43 per cent cited concerns about pollution as the reason for not doing so, according to a survey by a community social media platform.

Amid rising pollution levels in the national capital and adjoining areas, a survey conducted by a community social media platform has found that four in five families in the region have someone facing one or more ailments due to contaminated air.

The average levels of various pollutants, including PM10, PM2.5 and nitrogen dioxide, in Delhi last year were the lowest since 2014, according to the Delhi Economic Survey report.

About 93 per cent of Delhiites do not understand the Air Quality Index and its six categories, a survey of 10 most polluted areas of Delhi revealed on Friday.

Pollutants from various sources have been superficially depositing on the marble surface of Taj Mahal as particulate matter and due to scattering of light by these particles, the marble surface of Taj Mahal appears to have changed in colour.

Delhi, ranked 65th on the livability index among 111 major cities in the country, fared very poorly in reducing pollution as compared to NCR towns such as Gurgaon, Faridabad, Ghaziabad and Meerut.

Recent surveys reveal that air pollution in Delhi has come to a point where it has started affecting the respiratory tract of youngsters.

As he surveys his acres of charred farmland outside New Delhi, Ishwar Singh has little sympathy for people choking in India's capital or any reason to stop the fires that are fuelling pollution.

The social development arm of the industry chamber interacted with human resource professionals in about 150 companies operating in and around Delhi to evaluate the impact of air pollution.

Indoor air in Delhi is not fit to breathe and the elderly and children who spend a lot of time in offices and homes are the worst sufferers, a survey has found.

Around 35 per cent of school-going children in India suffer from poor lung health with Delhi topping the chart, reveals a recently released survey report.

Delhi has been ranked a dismal 111th out of 140 world cities in a latest global liveability study, pointing to the lack of urban planning across India's polluted and chaotic cities.

After registering a Preliminary Enquiry against Google for alleged mapping of classified areas, CBI has sought help of Survey of India which has alleged that the Internet giant continued to "pollute" the web with classified material despite being warned against it.
