AQI in Delhi is literally off the charts today. It is 999 in two places - which means they couldn't compute how bad it is. In R K Puram, South Delhi, where much of Delhi's well heeled live, PM 2.5 is 501 and PM 10 is 999 - again, off the charts. I had the misfortune of being in Saket twice today. On both occasions, the air was fetid. SPM levels were so high, you could smell them, not just feel them in your throat.

What have we done to our city, our planet? I am so glad my children are on vacation from today. I can take them away from this horrid mess. But for how long? Where is the solution to this? Who is bothered? :-(

Gora MohantyNot Arvind Kejriwal for sure. After his much-touted but half-baked initiatives in this regard, he seems to be aiming at burning crops as CM in Punjab. Hide
