Chandigarh, November 6
As Delhi continues to grapple with smog and air pollution in the ‘severe plus’ category on the Air Quality Index (AQI), a rather unexpected phenomenon has emerged – Delhiites jogging in the midst of haze at around 7 am, and the internet is having a field day making light of their fitness endeavours.
The current AQI in the city reached an alarming 470 on Monday morning, about 20 times higher than the World Health Organisation’s recommended limit.
Social media platforms are abuzz with a wave of humorous posts, poking fun at the joggers’ determination to exercise in the adverse conditions.
