44% Indian Cities Face Chronic Air Pollution

A new report says that nearly half of India's cities have really bad air pollution all the time.

This is because of things like cars, factories, and dust that keep polluting the air.

The government has a program to clean the air, but it only helps a small number of cities.

The worst cities for pollution are in places like Assam, Delhi, and Uttar Pradesh.

The report says the government needs to do more to make the air cleaner, like setting stricter rules for factories and using better ways to measure pollution.

Recently, the government also closed down 16 factories in the Delhi area because they were not following the rules to control pollution.

This shows that the government is trying to take action, but there is still a lot more to do.
