The national capital on Tuesday recorded a minimum temperature of 21.5 degrees Celsius, four notches above the season’s average, officials said.

The relative humidity at 8.30 am was 57 per cent, they said.

According to MeT officials, the maximum temperature will settle at around 33 degrees Celsius.

The weatherman has forecast generally cloudy sky with light rain later in the day.

The air quality in the city was recorded in the “poor” category. The air quality index (AQI) was 224 at 8.05 am, according to real-time data of the Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB).

An AQI between 201 and 300 is considered ‘poor’, 301-400 ‘very poor’ and 401-500 ‘severe’, while the AQI above 500 falls in the ‘severe plus’ category. PTI

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
