Due to increasing pollution in Punjab, people are having difficulty breathing. Due to pollution, smog-like conditions persisted in many areas of the city till 8 am. It seemed as if there was fog. Due to this smog, visibility was also affected in the morning. Drivers of two-wheelers and four-wheelers had to turn on the headlights.
Relief from pollution after rain
On the other hand, except Chandigarh and Amritsar, the Air Quality Index has come below 200 in other cities. According to the Central Pollution Control Board, there has been a lot of relief in pollution in Punjab. This relief is not permanent. Complete relief can be obtained only after rain, but the possibility of rain is still low.
Weather changes due to the effect of Western Disturbance
