Dense Fog, Rising AQI Grip NCR as Parliament Debates Pollution

On this Special Report, India Today’s Sneha Mordani reports from Gurugram’s Aravalli Biodiversity Park as dense fog and rising AQI engulf the National Capital Region. Mordani highlights the urgent need for a ‘holistic sort of a solution’ to the pollution crisis, noting that ‘problems are very similar’ across Delhi, Noida, and Faridabad. The segment also covers the Parliament’s short-duration discussion under Rule 193 on pollution, which Mordani argues affects ‘not just Delhi, but many other metropolitan cities’. Anchor Anjali Istwal discusses the visibility drop in Haryana and UP, while Mordani emphasizes the role of biodiversity parks as buffer zones, citing NGT directives to create more such green spaces.
