      <title>Lahore tops global list with worst air quality index</title>
      <link>https://english.aaj.tv/news/30340398/lahore-tops-global-list-with-worst-air-quality-index</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;The Air Quality Index (AQI) of Lahore worsened after 401 unhealthy particles were present in the air. However, the authorities are taking action against vehicles that spread smoke.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Lahore has been recorded as the world’s most polluted city while, Dehli, Kolkata, Baghdad, and Karachi have also been recorded unhealthy air with AQI 369,179, 178, respectively.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;    &lt;figure class='media  sm:w-4/5  w-full  media--center  '&gt;
        &lt;div class='media__item  '&gt;&lt;picture&gt;&lt;img src='https://i.aaj.tv/large/2023/11/140926526cef42f.jpg'  alt='' /&gt;&lt;/picture&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
        
    &lt;/figure&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;On the other hand, operations against vehicles emitting smoke were being conducted through Safe City cameras, in which authorities seized 37 from different areas of Lahore.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The spokesperson said that the field force was alerted when a vehicle emitting smoke was seen on the cameras as the team was monitoring the entrance and exit of vehicles in Lahore.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The authorities are engaged in preventing pollution said a spokesperson, and requested citizens should report smog spreaders around them to emergency 15.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Meanwhile, the hazardous air situation in the neighbour Dehli is also impacting the AQI of Lahore.&lt;/p&gt;
