Morning After Diwali, Kolkata Air Quality Falls To Near-Delhi Levels

Pollution levels in Kolkata nearly matched that of Delhi today, with its air quality index (AQI) slipping into the "very poor" category.

Official sources said the city's PM2.5 count stood at 356 around eight on the morning after Diwali, just 10 points behind that of Delhi's 365.

Kolkata's pollution had crossed that of the national capital on October 23 -- notching an unhealthy 245 to the latter's 240.
