Dec 1, 2025: Delhi air worsens a day after improvement

A day after recording an improvement, the average air quality in Delhi returned to the ‘very poor’ category on Monday. 

On the first day of Parliament’s winter session, Newslaundry visited Udyog Bhawan, which is about a kilometre away and houses a few ministries, including textiles, MSME, and industries. The official data put the AQI at 165, or in the “moderate” category”, but our air monitor pegged it at 313, or in the “very poor” category.
