The hazardous air quality poses severe health risks, particularly to vulnerable groups such as children, the elderly, and individuals with pre-existing respiratory or cardiovascular conditions. Prolonged exposure to such high pollution levels can lead to respiratory distress, eye irritation, and other health complications. The smog also reduces visibility, increasing the risk of road accidents. The ongoing festive season, coupled with the lack of effective implementation of pollution control measures, exacerbates the situation, leaving residents exposed to dangerous air quality.
