Every winter there are days when Delhi’s air quality deteriorates to dangerous levels due to stubble fires, emissions from Diwali crackers and local springs in the capital. Cold temperatures and no wind make the situation even worse as pollutants stay close to the surface, slowing particle diffusion. Health officials said these pollution centers, like government fever clinics, will have dedicated staff and resources and that the pilot project will also help collect data on the health hazards of pollution among Delhi residents.
