Delhi battles air pollution, AQI remains severe for the third day

The national capital continues to reel under the deteriorating air quality as several places in Delhi on Monday remained in the 'severe category' - for the third consecutive day, as per Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB).

Some parts of the capital were also engulfed in smog, a problem that Delhi-NCR struggles with every winter, aggravated by stubble burning in the neighbouring states of Punjab and Haryana.
