India’s Delhi International Airport Ltd. (DIAL) on Friday, issued a low visibility advisory due to poor air quality as a layer of smog shrouded several parts of the capital region.
The advisory was issued as the air quality index slipped back to the “very poor” category.
“Low visibility procedures are in progress at the Delhi Airport.
“All flight operations are presently normal.
“ Passengers are requested to contact the airline concerned for updated flight information,” reads the advisory issued by the DIAL.”
Air pollution continued to worsen in Delhi and it got aggravated during winter months.
The deterioration in air quality was attributed to slow wind speed and stubble burning (farm fires) in the neighboring states
