Indian capital New Delhi halted construction, shut schools, and enforced strict pollution controls as toxic smog enveloped the city. Air pollution worsens in the winter due to crop burning, colder temperatures trapping smoke, and emissions from vehicles and coal power.

Residents and tourists reported health issues like eye irritation and breathing difficulties. Authorities implemented Stage 4 of their graded action plan, aiming to curb pollution levels. Outrage grew on social media, highlighting the severe health impacts, with over a million annual deaths linked to pollution in India.
