City's AQI Tops 300 Levels, No Relief Likely Soon

Pollution levels in the city peaked on Friday with three continuous air quality monitoring stations recording over 300 microgram/cubic metre PM2.5 levels.

This means the city is in the red zone in the air quality index (AQI). With the Met Department forecasting only light winds for the next few days, there is very little likelihood of the pollution levels coming down, say experts.

The average of PM2.5 particles collected in a cubic metre space at Manali was 342, at Alandur 301 and at Velachery 307.
