Bhopal air pollution triples as broken roads turn into dust bowls

Recent diminished rainfall in Bhopal has led to increased air pollution, with the city's AQI rising from 23 to 70 in just two weeks. Monsoon showers had settled the dust, but damages to roads and ongoing construction have now tripled pollution levels. The increased particulate matter, especially PM2.5, poses significant health risks.
