Continuously Increasing Pollution in Pakistan May Threaten Haryana & Punjab
BY Connect Newsroom, Nov 5, 2024 5:21 PM - REPORT AN ERROR
If the wind direction changes, the air quality in Punjab and Haryana, India, may deteriorate, making it hazardous to breathe.
The ever-increasing pollution in Pakistan may affect the air quality in Haryana and Punjab. Two days ago, Lahore's air quality index reached around 1700, and it was recorded at 666 on Tuesday morning. If the wind direction changes, the air quality in Punjab and Haryana, India, may deteriorate, making it hazardous to breathe.
After Diwali, the air in most cities across both states has already turned toxic. The most polluted cities in Haryana are currently Fatehabad and Hisar. While there has been some improvement in the pollution levels in Punjab's Amritsar and Ludhiana, incidents of stubble burning at night, daytime traffic congestion, and dust blowing from the roads are continuing to exacerbate the pollution.
No cases of stubble burning have been reported in Haryana in the last 24 hours, while 13 incidents of field fires were recorded on Monday, according to data from the Punjab Remote Sensing Center.
