This special report focuses on New Delhi’s severe public health crisis as the city’s air quality plummets, with the AQI breaching the 400-mark in multiple locations. Amid the choking smog, the report highlights citizen protests at India Gate, where demonstrators, including leaders from the Aam Aadmi Party and Congress, gathered to demand government accountability, leading to several detentions. ‘They are openly fudging data,’ alleges a protestor, pointing to a deep trust deficit with the BJP-led Delhi government under Chief Minister Rekha Gupta, who has urged citizens to limit outdoor activities. The government has advised encouraging work-from-home policies and using public transport, but faces accusations of failing to control industrial and vehicular emissions, which, combined with stagnant winds, have turned the national capital into a veritable gas chamber.
