Delhi's air pollution has many contributors, geographic and anthropogenic. While the anthropogenic reasons (like stubble burning, crackers on Diwali, vehicular pollution etc.) have been much maligned, the bigger factor in play is the geography of the region.

The reality of the pollution crisis in Byrnihat: > Pollution worsened after rapid industrialization in the late 1990s. > There are 80+ industrial units in the region. >The crisis is not caused by ethanol alone - cement, coke, steel, and vehicle emissions are major contributors. >Weak pollution control and poor enforcement over many years worsened the situation. >Some polluting factories have now been shut down by the current govt, but decades of damage cannot be reversed overnight. > Instead of discussing facts, the Congress IT cell focuses on narrative manipulation while pretending to care about environmental issues.

#WATCH | On air pollution in Delhi NCR, Delhi minister Parvesh Verma says, "Today in Parliament, there is a discussion on air pollution. What you see in front of you are all the tasks any government should have completed to rid us of pollution. Whether it's removing mountains of garbage, repairing footpaths, e-waste management, cleaning the Yamuna, cleaning roads, etc....The AAP government should have done all these tasks in the last 11 years. If the AAP government had even done half of these tasks, we would have had to do only the remaining ones... But Arvind Kejriwal and the AAP government have not done even a single task in the last 11 years...Our government in Delhi has been in place for the past 9 months... From February 20, 2025, the Chief Minister of Delhi and all the ministers have been out on Delhi's roads...The Delhi government has been successful in every program. Today, when we talk about pollution, it is not a problem that arose in one year. For years, pollution has been increasing in Delhi, and if Arvind Kejriwal had done even a little bit of work, we would have had to do only the remaining work. Still, the misfortune is that Arvind Kejriwal has deceived the people of Delhi..."

The AQI of Delhi recorded a very poor 378. A week before Diwali, it was almost the same. This clearly shows that Diwali crackers have no role in Delhi-NCR's pollution. The anti-cracker agenda is pushed solely to defame Diwali.

According to Dhruv Rathee and his group of liberals who worry about air pollution only during Diwali 😂🤡, what about the major causes of air pollution such as vehicle emissions from cars and trucks, industrial smoke from factories, burning of fossil fuels like coal and oil, deforestation which reduces carbon absorption, and agricultural activities involving fertilizers and pesticides? It’s important to recognize that these everyday sources contribute far more to air pollution than the occasional firecrackers during festivals. #diwali #diwali2025

Today, entire north India has been pushed into a medical emergency. Be it Delhi, Chandigarh, Jaipur, Bikaner, Bhopal, Patna, Lucknow - today, AQI across the country is Very Poor, Poor, Severe, Severe+. Central Pollution Control Board releases data every day...Today, people across the country are unable to breathe. If you see the data on stubble burning and farm fire, be it Rajasthan, Haryana, Uttar Pradesh, or Madhya Pradesh - you will see stubble burning happening everywhere. What is the Central Government doing? If there is one state in this country that has brought down the incidents of stubble burning, it is Punjab. If you see the data, in 2021, a total of 71,300 incidents of fire were reported. Last year, it dropped to 36,650. This year, only 8,404 incidents have occurred in Punjab. But look at the data of other states. In UP, stubble-burning incidents have gone up by 60% compared to last year. Last year 1533 farm fears occurred and this year it increased to 1926. Stubble burning is happening in Rajasthan. In 2020, around 430 incidents of stubble burning occurred and by 2024, it went up to 1926. The highest number of stubble-burning incidents in the country is taking place in Madhya Pradesh. Centre's own data says that from 15th September to 17th November, 9,600 incidents of stubble burning have occurred in Madhya Pradesh...When Punjab Government can bring down the incidents of stubble burning by 80%, why are such incidents rising in other states?"
