Lahore is the fourth most polluted major city in the world.

Multan’s shrine city has 265 AQI readings, making it Pakistan’s most polluted metropolis. According to the air pollution measuring scale, Lahore has 249 readings, making it the second most polluted city in the nation.

According to the degree of air pollution, Peshawar came in third, Rawalpindi in fourth, and Karachi in fifth.

In the first few days of November, the capital city of Punjab experienced an extremely high air quality index (AQI) score of 1067.

Lahore continued to be the city with the worst air quality in the world.

Residents are suffering from severe health issues due to the city’s smog, as they work in air that is toxic and have been reported to experience burning eyes, coughing, and breathing difficulties.

When winter arrives, the city’s air pollution levels rise along with the wind’s direction, speed, and dropping minimum temperature.

More than 80 times the World Health Organization’s (WHO) allowed level of air pollution was recorded in Lahore, according to an official.

Deadly PM2.5 pollution, the small particle matter in the air that is most harmful to health, reached a height of 1,067.

Wintertime is when smog is most noticeable since colder, thicker air absorbs emissions from the fuels that power the city’s ground-level factories and automobiles.

If your AQI is between 201 and 300, it’s more healthy than if it’s between 151-200.
