The maximum temperature is expected to reach 35 degrees Celsius. As of 11 am, Delhi’s Air Quality Index (AQI) was measured at 84, falling within the ‘satisfactory’ range on the AQI scale, where an AQI between zero and 50 is considered ‘good,’ 51 to 100 ‘satisfactory,’ 101 to 200 ‘moderate,’ 201 to 300 ‘poor,’ 301 to 400 ‘very poor,’ and 401 to 500 ‘severe.’ (With inputs from PTI)
