Delhi on Saturday recorded its cleanest air quality so far this year with an AQI of 59, according to the Commission for Air Quality Management (CAQM).
Intermittent rain in most parts of Delhi has played a role in improving the national capital’s air quality and keeping temperatures in check.
“Delhi today registered its best AQI of 2023. Delhi’s average AQI clocked 59 today. The earlier recorded best AQI of Delhi during current year was 64 on 9th July. Let’s continue working together towards cleaner skies and a healthier environment,” the CAQM said in a tweet.
An AQI between zero and 50 is considered ‘good’, 51 and 100 ‘satisfactory’, 101 and 200 ‘moderate’, 201 and 300 ‘poor’, 301 and 400 ‘very poor’, and 401 and 500 ‘severe’.
