This special report features a doctors’ roundtable hosted by India Today’s Sonal Mehrotra Kapoor, addressing Delhi’s severe air pollution crisis and its health impacts. Dr. Balbir Singh, Chairman of Cardiology at Max Healthcare, states that heart disease is a leading cause of pollution-related deaths. The panel, including pulmonologist Dr. Vivek Nangia, paediatrician Dr. Nihar Parikh, and rheumatologist Dr. Bimalesh Dharpande, discusses links between toxic air and increased heart attacks, lung cancer in non-smokers, arthritis, and severe respiratory issues in children. The broadcast also covers the Supreme Court’s decision to permit green crackers for a limited time during Diwali amidst Delhi’s ‘poor’ to ‘very poor’ air quality, and exposes flaws in Delhi’s AQI monitoring system, uncovered by a 12th-grade student. Additionally, the report examines Bengaluru’s infrastructure issues, including a public dispute between Biocon founder Kiran Mazumdar-Shaw and the Karnataka government, with Deputy CM D.K. Shivakumar questioning Shaw’s timing. The bulletin concludes with a Ministry of External Affairs denial regarding a phone call between Prime Minister Modi and former US President Donald Trump.
