The Grey Race

Srinagar, Nov 11:Air Quality Index (AQI) readings compiled by Airleaf have turned into an India-Pakistan race. Cities in India and Pakistan overwhelmingly fill the list of the worlds most polluted urban centres as per the rankings released on 10 November 2026. This is perhaps the starkest picture of a regional air quality crisis faced by the subcontinent. The entire top 50 polluted cities are either in India or Pakistan. Qadirpur Ran in Pakistan recorded the highest reading at an extreme AQI of 1065, followed closely by Multan at 983. Gwalior, India ranked third with 816. The top 10 was dominated by a mix of Pakistani cities - Dera Ghazi Khan had an AQI of 716. RenalaKhurd had 700 and Okara 700. Indian cities had Kota with 698, Jodhpur 694, Unnao 693 and Kanpur 693. Down the list, the pattern continues - Pakistani cities such as Kasur, Charsadda, Arifwala, Pattoki, Phool Nagar and Bahawalpur are in the upper ranks. Indian cities including Hapur, Meerut, Soyibug, Lucknow, Palwal, Bhopal, Ambala, New Delhi, Ahmedabad, Nagpur, Varanasi, Ludhiana and Ghaziabad also register dangerously high levels. Even cities lower in the top 50 recorded AQI values well into the very unhealthy and hazardous categories. On the US EPA scale used in the rankings, an AQI between 201 and 300 is classified as very unhealthy. Anything above 300 is considered hazardous. Many Indian and Pakistani cities have readings above 500, and in several cases above 700 or even 1000, show severe pollution that poses serious health risks to the entire population. Prolonged exposure to polluted air is known to aggravate respiratory and cardiovascular conditions and reduce lung function. Post-monsoon and in early winter months, meteorological conditions often trap pollutants close to the ground.

Married UP man dies by suicide after friend's daughter rejects his proposal in Delhi

Digital Desk | New Delhi, Nov 7 (IANS) A 47-year-old married man died by suicide after setting himself on fire inside a utensil factory in northwest Delhi's Wazirpur Industrial Area. Police said he left behind a suicide note in which he attributed his extreme step to the breakdown of his alleged 'friendship' with a 20-year-old woman, who is his friend's daughter. The deceased, identified as Sandeep, was a native of Sant Kabir Nagar in Uttar Pradesh, where he lived with his wife and two children. According to police, Sandeep frequently visited a friend's house, where he developed feelings for the latter's daughter. The woman, who works at a utensil factory in Wazirpur Industrial Area, lives alone in Delhi. Police said Sandeep regularly contacted the woman over the phone. However, she had reportedly stopped communicating with him for some time. Disturbed by this, he travelled to Delhi on Thursday. On Friday, Sandeep reached the factory carrying two bottles of petrol and asked the woman to marry him. When she declined his proposal, he poured petrol over himself and set himself ablaze, police said. Hearing his cries, factory workers rushed to help him. They managed to extinguish the flames and immediately shifted him to Deep Chand Bandhu Hospital, where doctors declared him dead. During the investigation, police recovered a suicide note in which Sandeep held the woman responsible for the breakdown of their friendship and linked it to his decision to take his own life. However, the woman has denied being in a relationship with him, police said. The body has been sent for a post-mortem examination, while the deceased's family has been informed about the incident. Further investigation into the matter is underway. In a separate incident earlier this week, a 25-year-old man died by suicide at the residence of his married girlfriend in Kanpur on Tuesday. He had reportedly gone to meet her and was sitting inside a room when her brother-in-law grew suspicious of someone's presence inside. In desperation the young man decided to kill himself.
