Rain

Rain may have helped improve air quality

Rain in Gurgaon may have helped improve air quality. Following the rain on the intervening night of Thursday and Friday, Gurugram's air quality improved dramatically, with the AQI reading 50 (good) at 6:00am. However, this isn't to say that the air is now safe. As of Monday evening, Sector 51's AQI was 357, Vikas Sasan (277), NISE Gwal Pahari (262) and Teri Gram (286).
