Noida and Ghaziabad are the main sources of PM2.5 pollution in Delhi. The lack of a unified approach hinders progress in combating air pollution. There is a need for the Uttar Pradesh government to conduct a source apportionment study to identify local sources of pollution in both cities, similar to what has been done in Delhi says Mr Suresh Ramasubramanya Iyer, Senior Fellow and area convener at the Centre for Air Quality Research of The Energy and Resources Institute (TERI).

India's capital has recorded the world's most toxic air as seasonal fires to clear farmland added to pollution from vehicles, construction and coal-fired power plants. The current poor air quality is due to a drop in temperatures and slow wind speeds that's hampered the dispersal of pollution says Dr Anju Goel, Fellow, The Energy and Resources Institute.
