Delhi is currently not the best place to be- as far as a deteriorating AQI is concerned. The city is pretty much facing an ‘air crisis’, with people suffering from several issues as a consequence of the same. Amid the same, a foreigner’s remark went viral. The video was shared online, where the tourist was being interviewed by the new agency ANI, in front of the India Gate. As per the video, the man was in Agra before reaching Delhi- where his bus ride showed him the stark difference between the pollution levels of both cities. The smog was only getting ‘thicker’, as the bus continued to drive

towards the National Capital. He further stated that things kept getting ‘worse’, to the point that it became a task to even see the Sun properly.“It's pretty bad. I came from Agra by bus, and the closer I got to Delhi, the thicker the smog was. You could definitely tell the difference. The closer I got to Delhi, it kept getting worse to the point where I could even barely see the sun anymore,” the foreigner was heard saying.The video went viral, with people reacting in multiple ways. Most found the tourist’s remark a ‘dark reality’ that India is seemingly ‘ignoring’. Meanwhile, some blamed the authorities for not taking stricter action against the issue. Currently, Delhi stands at AQI 311, which comes under the category of ‘Severe’, as per the monitor of SAFAR- India.
