Why Is Delhi’s AQI Rising Again?
Delhi’s pollution ke peeche multiple reasons hain, aur sab ek dusre se interconnected hain. Experts ke according, 2025 ka pollution pattern pichle saal se zyada complex hai.
1. Stubble Burning Back in Action
Punjab aur Haryana se aane wale smoke plumes ne Delhi NCR ki air quality ko severe affect kiya.NASA satellites ne dense fire clusters capture kiyeWind direction Delhi ki tarafSmoke layer ground level winds ke saath settle ho rahiYeh stubble smoke Delhi ke PM2.5 levels ko 4x times tak increase kar deta hai.
2. Vehicle Emission Continues to Dominate
Daily traffic volume abhi bhi extremely high hai. Even-odd policy discuss ho rahi hai, lekin implement abhi nahi hua.
- Diesel vehicles biggest contributors
- Heavy-duty trucks PM2.5 aur NOx generate karte hain
- Morning cold air me pollutants trap ho jaate hainYe cycle har saal repeat hota hai — aur is baar situation aur aggressive ho chuki hai.
3. Construction Dust + Road Pollution
Net NCR me nearly 1,500 construction sites active hain.Dust suppression ka palan har jagah nahi hota, jisse PM10 levels dangerous ho jaate hain.
Delhi Covered in Hazardous Smog — Ground Reality
Early morning commuters ne report kiya ki roads par visibility 100–150 meters tak gir gayi.IGI Airport me aircraft operations temporarily slow kiye gaye.
People’s reactions on ground
- “Aankhon me jalan ho rahi hai.”
- “Bachchon ko school bhejne me darr lag raha hai.”
- “Smell itni strong hai ki mask ke bina rehna impossible ho gaya.”
Yeh public sentiment clearly show karta hai ki situation emotionally distressing ban rahi hai.

- Odd-even scheme dobara lagu ho sakti hai
- Private vehicles ka movement restricted hoga
3. Schools May Switch to Hybrid Mode
AQI data ke basis par, education department hybrid classes propose kar sakta hai.
Experts Predict Air Quality to Get Worse
Meteorologists ke hisaab se:
- Air stagnation continue karega
- Cold wave pollutants ko niche trap karegi
- Wind speed slow rahegi
- Smog aur dense ho sakta hai
Agar wind patterns me improvement nahi aaya to AQI “severe” tak ja sakta hai.
What Can Citizens Do? Practical Protection Tips
1. High-Quality Masks Use karein
N95 ya N99 mask is time compulsory hai.
Carpooling / Metro Travel Prefer Karein
Vehicle emission kam hoga aur safety bhi badhegi
3. Indoor Plants Lagayen
Aloe vera, snake plant, areca palm air cleaning me helpful hain.
4. Windows Open Na Rakhein
Smog particles easily indoors enter karte hain.
5. Air Purifier Use Karein
PM2.5 cleaning essential ho chuka hai.
Will Delhi’s AQI Improve Soon?
Short answer: Nahi, immediate relief nahi dikh raha.
Weather models predict kar rahe hain:
- Next 48 hours me AQI 310–340 tak pahunch sakta hai
- Smog aur dense hogi
- Sunlight kam hogi
- Pollution settle hota rahega
Iska matlab hai ki pollution woes continue karne wale hain.
Delhi AQI Update 2025 clearly show karta hai ki pollution season full intensity me shuru ho chuka hai. AQI ka sirf 2 points door hona ‘very poor’ range se — ek serious environmental warning hai. Smog ki ghanapan, public health concerns, aur slow wind conditions mil kar ek dangerous combination create kar rahe hain.
Agar strong policy action nahi liya gaya, to Delhi ka November–December 2025 most polluted season ban sakta hai.
