A Lancet study highlights that long-term exposure to PM2.5 particles is responsible for millions of deaths in India.

A new study from Karolinska Institutet shows that long-term exposure to air pollution contributes to millions of deaths in India. The research, published in The Lancet Planetary Health, emphasizes the need for stricter air quality regulations in the country.

Every 10 microgram per cubic metre increase in PM2.5 concentration led to an 8.6 per cent increase in mortality, revealed a study conducted by researchers from five countries

A new study reveals that PM2.5 pollution causes 1.5 million deaths annually in India, with levels exceeding WHO limits nationwide. Researchers call for urgent policy interventions to reduce risks.

Researchers, including those at Ashoka University, Haryana, and Centre for Chronic Disease Control, New Delhi, said that the entire 1.4 billion population of India live in areas having PM2.5 levels higher than World Health Organization-recommended five micrograms per cubic metre yearly average.

Delhi’s air quality index went as high as 1,700 in some parts of the city. The maximum index deemed healthy by the World Health Organization is 50.
