JustBurstout CEO shows off super-low AQI in Paris
Anuradha Tiwari, CEO of JustBurstout, shared a picture (which many suggested was from Paris) showing off a super-low AQI of 10 after spending her whole month's salary to get away from Delhi's choking air (which crossed an AQI of 400).
Her move quickly got people talking—not just about pollution, but about who can actually afford to leave.
People wondered why she didn't pick a local getaway
People online pointed out that plenty of Indian spots like Mussoorie or Uttarakhand have clean air too, and way cheaper.
Many wondered why she flew all the way to Paris instead of picking a local getaway.
Some even felt she was showing off her privilege by choosing an international escape.
Meanwhile, back in Delhi, the government is taking measures
Delhi's toxic air hit crisis levels mostly because of stubble burning—responsible for over 22% of the city's PM2.5 pollution on November 12.
The government responded with strict measures: banning most construction, limiting old vehicles, and shifting younger students to hybrid classes as everyone tries to cope with the smog.
