    Delhi-NCR residents witnessed a slight improvement in air quality over the weekend, as pollution levels dropped from extremely hazardous levels of 500–600, but the situation remains far from ideal. While the reduction has brought marginal visibility relief, the Air Quality Index (AQI) continues to stay in the “severe” category, posing serious health concerns. On a holiday, smog intensity across Delhi appeared lower compared to previous days, yet a visible haze persisted from India Gate to Akshardham and Signature Bridge. Ground reports from Akshardham confirmed that although conditions have improved slightly, the AQI is still dangerously high in several areas. Anand Vihar recorded an AQI of 433, Chandni Chowk 442, Bawana 442, Patparganj 410, and Punjabi Bagh 422. Greater Noida also reported AQI levels close to the hazardous threshold. Authorities acknowledged that pollution levels have come down from the extreme 500–600 range seen earlier, but emphasized that air quality is still not within the safe or satisfactory zone. Due to reduced visibility and pollution-related risks, vehicle speed restrictions remain in place, especially on highways, where driving continues to be unsafe. Experts warn that prolonged exposure can still impact health, urging residents to avoid unnecessary outdoor activities while monitoring measures continue.
