Delhi is really confusing .. Fed up of AAP, but Congress is Incompetent & BJP is too much Hindu-Muslim.

The centre- state tussle is really annoying. Just because of politics, states have to suffer. This is just not working out

Please no BJP.

Delhi needs communism.

I wonder if the city knows that they have to remove the plastic inside of the air filter. that's probably why it's not working.

Honest question, how is there not government intervention on the crop burning. They're literally going to kill people with this pollution.

Reading through the comments, why is everyone always so quick to defend India and their pollution? It's such a detriment to the environment. Like how do people live like that in the modern world?

I went to Delhi last year. Beautiful city. With that said, I’d wake up in the middle of the night coughing and your mucus is noticeably black with soot lining the inside of your nose

If we ever migrate to another planet, please leave India on Earth and all its citizens/natives.
