Delhi’s air quality has reached hazardous levels, with PM2.5 concentrations of 247 µg/m³, far exceeding WHO's safe limit of 15 µg/m³.

A study by the University of Chicago revealed Delhi residents lose 7.8 years of life expectancy due to air pollution. Experts suggest using air purifiers, wearing N95 masks, and maintaining hydration to combat these effects.

The man had coerced the victim into a sexual relationship, leading to pregnancy, abuse, and a false marriage. The court highlighted that the minor’s inability to legally consent and the abuse she faced made the act a criminal offense, upholding the 10-year sentence.
