Delhi air pollution: Delhi residents woke up to ‘severe’ air quality on Thursday morning (November 14), a day after the national capital recorded the worst AQI in the country, with dense smog blanketing the NCR, reducing visibility. On Wednesday, the Air Quality Index (AQI) turned 'severe' for the first time this season, even as the central pollution watchdog attributed the deterioration to an “unprecedentedly dense” fog and described it as an “episodic event”.
