Air pollution in Delhi-NCR becomes a huge concern at this time of the year. Stubble burning is one of the many factors attributed for it.

3) Chennai - For Tamil Nadu’s capital, a majority of stations recorded AQI in the “poor” category. [HT noted in a report](https://www.hindustantimes.com/cities/mumbai-news/air-pollution-spikes-to-dangerous-levels-as-firecrackers-go-off-across-city-101666638924753.html) that particulate matter concentrations settled at the highest since January. This means that the air quality is just one step away from getting “severe” (401-500), which “affects healthy people and seriously impacts those with existing illnesses”. It encourages us that we are on the right track. It is encouraging that we are no longer the world’s most polluting city. Even as crackers remained banned and the Supreme Court refused to hear a plea last week, which challenged the restrictions as it stressed - “Let people breathe clean air”, the National Capital Region (NCR) saw multiple violations on Diwali night.
