Why increased pollution levels

Indian Meteorological Department scientist Dr. Kuldeep Srivastava says that the lockdown has got a lot of relaxation. Due to this vehicles have increased on the road and work is also being started. With the rise in temperature, dust blowing air is also going on in Rajasthan. Southwest winds blow dust to Delhi-NCR this season. Dust increases the PM10 level.
