Downplaying Air Pollution makes you believe that there is no air pollution or these AQI numbers are just numbers, and life goes as usual. 320 was the AQI inside the Delhi Metro just now. Folks, wear a mask please. Dont worry, it’s still not a crime.

I had to do a short interview with one of the news channels and we decided to go to Anand Vihar Metro Station, as this being one of the most polluted areas of Delhi, and also has one of the two SMOG TOWERS, and also is infamous for mischievous AQI monitoring. Here is what we found, also evidenced through videos: 1) AQI monitors are all surrounded by trees, is far away from where the real pollution needs to be measured, perhaps closer to where human activity was; 2) Entire area was sprinkled with water, also had water sprinkling trucks taking rounds. Clearly monitors can’t give the true pollution reading; 3) SMOG TOWER, that I also call Woo-do science, was shut down hen we reached, was switched on after an hour, and was told that it operates a few hours on few days. It following working hours, and working days schedule, as if pollution follows a govt circular of work timings and holidays etc; 4) SMOG TOWER was less than 20 meters from the Air Quality Monitors; 5) Apart from sprinkling water through tankers, there were two smog guns installed atop the building next to it, pointing towards the AQI monitor. It was shut when we reached, and as soon as we left, it was turned on again. In conclusion, manipulating data is not called governance. I wonder why would keep AQI monitors under a tree, in a secluded area, sprinkle water all the time over and around it, have a smog tower gigantic air purifiers just feets away from the monitoring station. Why even pretend to measure??
