Air Quality Concerns As Punjab Stubble-Burning Returns Ahead Of Winter
The fields of Punjab are again black with burnt stubble ahead of winter. The air is smoky, likely toxic. The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) government in Delhi had blamed Punjab's farm fires for air pollution in the National Capital Region (NCR) in 2021.
A year later, the AAP came to power in Punjab, and had promised it would control stubble burning. Now, two years later, stubble-burning in the border state is back again.
