India Dec 26, 2025

Chief Justice of India Surya Kant says tackling Delhi's air pollution needs steady, expert-led solutions—not shortcuts.
In a chat with CNN-News18, he shared his faith in specialists to guide the way, as the capital faces another tough winter for clean air.

Delhi's air quality keeps bouncing between "poor" and "very poor"—in December 2025, it spiked from 220 to a hazardous 412.

Hospitals are seeing up to 30% more people with breathing issues this month, including lots of young adults.
