A special report investigates allegations of pollution data manipulation in Delhi, with anchor Sonal Mehrotra Kapoor on the ground to verify the numbers. Environmentalist Bhavreen Kandhari states, ‘It’s a game of numbers to just reduce’. The investigation reveals discrepancies between private and official air quality monitors, defunct display boards in VIP areas, and the effect of water sprinklers on sensor readings. The report also features expert Abhijit Yadav, who explains how Delhi’s unique geography, including the Himalayas and temperature inversion, creates a trap for pollutants. This geographical sandwich effect, combined with high emission density, exacerbates the air quality crisis, making it a complex challenge that requires more than just temporary fixes like cloud seeding. The Supreme Court has also raised questions about the monitoring of pollution in the capital.
