Do you know that 1.2 million deaths in India could be attributable to the growing air pollution?
As per a study published in The Lancet Planetary Health journal, approximately 77 % of Indians breathe in polluted air, which is above the level of the National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS) safe limits.
Health professionals and environmentalists are concerned with the increasing air pollution levels that are causing serious breathing problems as well as affecting the overall health of the population.
