Delhi Experiences Worst Fog in Decades; Schools Shut, Flights Delayed

 Delhi witnessed one of its most severe fog incidents in decades in early December 2024, leading to major disruptions across the city. The dense fog severely impacted air and road traffic, causing delays in hundreds of flights and trains. The visibility in several parts of the city dropped to near zero, and temperatures dipped to record lows. Schools were forced to shut for the day, and government offices also faced delayed working hours as commuters struggled to navigate the fog-covered roads. Health experts issued advisories for vulnerable populations, especially children and the elderly, advising them to stay indoors to avoid respiratory issues. The prolonged fog has been attributed to a combination of weather patterns and air pollution, which has worsened significantly in recent years. Environmentalists have called for stronger measures to reduce pollution levels in the capital, as the city continues to grapple with deteriorating air quality.
