Gen Z slams Delhi’s toxic air as AQI crisis deepens
Delhi's air quality slipped into the 'poor' category with an AQI of 288, CPCB data showed. Gen Z has called out weak enforcement, rising firecracker use, and unmonitored pollution sources. Many say daily life now feels suffocating, with one young resident remarking, "Like, you can't take deep breaths right now." Others term current measures "false fixes" that ignore root causes.
