Agra has been recording a gradual improvement in air quality after Diwali. Pollution levels are varying across different parts of the city. The air in the Shastripuram area has been recorded as relatively cleaner. According to available data, the Air Quality Index (AQI) here has reached around 140. Although this level does not indicate completely clean air, the reduction in pollution after Diwali is being seen as a relief.
Pollution varies between localities
Air quality conditions in Agra are not the same in all areas. Recent monitoring data recorded higher pollution levels in areas such as Sanjay Place, Shahjahan Garden and Awas Vikas Colony than in Shastripuram. This makes it clear that local conditions and sources of pollution continue to create differences in air quality across different parts of the city.
Caution needed despite improvement
After Diwali, fireworks and dust had increased pressure on Agra’s air. Now, a decline in AQI in some areas is indicating signs of improvement. However, the level of fine particles present in the air may remain a health concern. Children, elderly people and those with respiratory problems need to take precautions in view of pollution levels.
