Gurugram, Jind hit 'severe' air quality levels

India Oct 21, 2025

Air quality in Haryana and Punjab deteriorated.
On Tuesday, Jind and Dharuhera in Haryana hit "severe" AQI levels—421 and 412—which is pretty alarming.
Gurugram landed in the "very poor" zone, while several places across Punjab also saw "poor" air days.

Narnaul, Rohtak, Bahadurgarh also struggle with pollution

Haryana's Narnaul (390), Rohtak (376), Bahadurgarh (368), Manesar (320), Sirsa and Charkhi Dadri (both 353) weren't far behind on the pollution charts.
Faridabad and Ambala had slightly better numbers at 268 and 234.
Over in Punjab, Amritsar (224), Jalandhar (247), and Ludhiana (271) all struggled with poor air too.
Chandigarh was a bit better off with a moderate AQI of 147, but overall, the region's air is raising health concerns for everyone—especially if you're out and about.
