Delhi Air Stays 'Moderate' Post-Rain; Will It Become 'Poor' Again?

The air quality in Delhi has stayed 'moderate' for the third day in a row, and stood at 130 on the Air Quality Index (AQI) on February 21. Light rain and good weather are responsible for the improvement. On February 22, the air quality is expected to remain 'moderate,' but could keep oscillating between 'poor' and 'moderate' in the coming six days. Anti-pollution measures under Stage-I and Stage-II of the Graded Response Action Plan (GRAP) are being implemented to avoid further worsening. The maximum temperature in Delhi will be between 26 and 29 degrees Celsius, with predominantly clear skies forecasted.
