💨 Abstract

Delhi Environment Minister Gopal Rai thanked residents for largely abstaining from firecracker use on Diwali, preventing a severe air quality index (AQI) reading. Although some still burst crackers, the air quality could have been better if the ban was fully adhered to. The government deployed mobile smog guns to control dust and further mitigate pollution levels as part of a special dust-control campaign on Diwali.
