Delhi's Air Quality Improves, But Anand Vihar Remains Severely Polluted
25 Oct
Summary
- Delhi's air quality shows slight improvement on October 25, 2025
- Anand Vihar area remains in 'severe' pollution category
- Minimum temperature in Delhi settles at 16.9°C
As of October 25, 2025, Delhi's air quality has shown a slight improvement, with the overall Air Quality Index (AQI) dropping from 290 the previous day to 261, placing it in the 'poor' category. However, the Anand Vihar area continues to be a cause for concern, as it recorded an AQI of 415, the highest among all monitoring stations in the capital.
The improvement in air quality is a welcome development, but the persistent 'severe' pollution levels in Anand Vihar highlight the ongoing challenges Delhi faces in tackling its air crisis. The minimum temperature in the city has also settled at 16.9°C, 0.3 degrees Celsius below the normal. With the weather department forecasting mist in the morning hours and a mainly clear sky later in the day, the city's residents can hope for some respite from the pollution.
The Delhi government has proposed cloud seeding as a potential solution to the air pollution problem, but the effectiveness of this approach remains a subject of debate. As the city continues to grapple with this pressing environmental issue, residents and policymakers will need to work together to find sustainable and long-term solutions to improve the air quality and protect public health.
