If you do not smoke, but still live in Delhi-NCR, then believe me, the amount of air you breathe throughout the day is no less than that of a chain-smoker! This is not a joke, but a truth which has shocked the entire internet. Recently, a woman from Gurugram shared such a picture on social media, which made everyone think about what kind of air we are breathing.
Person shared picture of air filter on social media
Actually, the woman showed the filter of her air purifier which had become so black due to dust, smoke and dirt that the onlookers got goosebumps. It was clearly visible in the picture that there was a thick layer of dust on the filter and when he cleaned it, the original white color was visible underneath. People were surprised to see that the filter became in this condition within a few weeks. Meaning, this poison is being dissolved in our breath every day.
This is my air purifier filter in Gurgaon.
The land of ₹200 crore apartments, glossy towers & lungs working overtime like interns at Big 4.
Welcome to the city where we pay premium for polluted air.

The condition of Delhi NCR is very bad!
Now this picture has become a symbol of the air of Delhi NCR on social media. A city where even breathing has become a luxury. Doctors are also warning that the continuously increasing AQI (Air Quality Index) is dangerous not only for the elderly or children, but for people of all ages. Cough, allergies, difficulty in breathing and sleep problems are now becoming common.
