According to the report, India was home to 11 of the 15 most polluted cities in Central and South Asia in 2021. Delhi saw a 14.6 percent increase in PM2.5 concentrations in 2021 with levels rising to 96.4 µg/m3 from 84 µg/m3 in 2020. No cities in India met the WHO air quality guideline of 5 µg/m3. In 2021, 48 percent of India's cities exceeded 50 µg/m3, or more than 10 times the WHO guideline. In 2021, 48 percent of India's cities exceeded 50 µg/m3, or more than 10 times the WHO guideline.

SOUNDBITE (Hindi): CHETAN KOLI, Fisherman STORYLINE: The Central Institute of Fisheries Education (CIFE) in India has found an abundant variety of microplastics in the gastrointestinal (GI) tracts and gills of croaker fish netted off Mumbai's coast. The research, based on a survey done along Mumbai's coastline, was recently published in the renowned Elsevier journal. It found that the GI tract and the gills of the fish had microplastics less than 100 microns in size. The study had sought to establish the intensity of microplastic pollution in demersal species or bottom-feeders found in the northeastern coastal waters of the Arabian Sea. The microplastics found in the fish tissue were predominantly black and blue in color and posed a carcinogenic risk to consumers and organisms in the food chain. Reacting to the
