The air quality of the national capital is expected to improve on Friday. Also, the effect of stubble burning is low, SAFAR said. Apart from the pollutants, two other factors are negatively impacting the air quality of the city. “Surface-level winds are calm and forecast to pick up and the AQI is likely to improve during the day. Under the calm wind-cold conditions, low ventilation has halted the dispersion of accumulated pollutants,” SAFAR said.
