Air quality picks up after a month

Air quality of the city over the last week was the best in at least a month, as per data released by the Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB). Following a spate of ‘very poor’ quality of air between May 10 and 13, the air quality improved to ‘moderate’ for four days, to ‘satisfactory’ for one day and again, ‘very poor’ for one day between May 14 and 19.

After entering the ‘very poor’ quality on May 13, rains and high velocity winds have brought city’s air into its most favorable spate in at least two months with moderate and good air quality days, and just one ‘poor’ day, since then(Yogendra Kumar/Hindustan Times)
