Delhi AQI Nears 500 As Post-Diwali Smog Chokes City | Diwali Over, Delhi's Pollution Battle Worsens
The political blame game over Delhi's worsening air pollution has intensified, with Delhi Minister Kapil Mishra accusing the Aam Aadmi Party of orchestrating a conspiracy to defame the Delhi government and Diwali celebrations. Mishra alleged that stubble burning was deliberately carried out in Punjab to worsen pollution in the national capital. He also questioned the AQI levels in Punjab, citing a reading of 1,611 in Sangrur, and demanded that the call records of AAP leaders be examined, alleging their involvement in the conspiracy.
