Delhi air: Delhiites woke up to clear, blue skies and abundant sunshine on Saturday, marking a welcome relief from the suffocating haze.
Although there was a dip in PM 2.5 and PM10 pollutants post-4 am across Delhi and its neighboring regions, concerns about pollution persist.
Bringing a huge sigh of relief for residents in the national capital, who have been breathing toxic air over the last few weeks, Delhi Environment Minister Gopal Rai on Saturday said the rainfall a day ago dispersed pollutants.
The light rain that lashed Delhi on Thursday night and Friday morning brought some respite from the toxic haze enveloping the national capital for the last week.
The Delhi government has postponed the implementation of the odd-even policy in the capital due to improving air quality index after overnight rains. The AQI, which was 450+, has now reached around 300. The decision to implement odd-even from November 13 to 20 has been postponed, and the situation will be analysed again after Diwali.
