Diwali Fireworks Worsen Severe Air Pollution in New Delhi
Posted on 2026-11-09 19:53:13
A thick blanket of smog has covered India's capital, New Delhi, after
widespread fireworks during Diwali celebrations worsened already high
pollution levels.

Despite restrictions, residents set off firecrackers on Sunday evening,
pushing the air quality index above 350 in several parts of the city on
Monday morning, placing conditions in the severe category.

India's Supreme Court has sought to reduce Diwali pollution by restricting
conventional firecrackers, but enforcement remains difficult.

Home to more than 30 million people, New Delhi regularly experiences some of
the world's worst air pollution during the winter months, particularly in
late October and November.
