EVEN AS air quality in the capital continues to be poor, Delhi environment minister Imran Hussain on Saturday assessed the ambient air quality and the status of air pollution with senior officials. Though the “concentration” of particulate matter “exceeds the prescribed limits”, officials said it is in “the normal range observed in the last few years”.

Meanwhile, according to the Regional Meteorological Centre, the capital will continue to experience fog for the next three days. PM levels are also expected to drop after three days, said officials.
