India’s capital New Delhi overtook Pakistan’s Lahore to become the world’s most polluted major city as dense smog blanketed 20 million people, reducing visibility and pushing air quality to dangerous levels.

India’s Central Pollution Control Board reported Delhi’s air quality index (AQI) at 403, classifying conditions as severe. Seasonal pollution across northern India and neighbouring Pakistan is worsened by vehicle emissions, construction dust, and agricultural burning trapped by cold winter air.
