As Delhi’s air quality crossed 400 on the Air Quality Index, several fitness events, including marathons and cyclothons, were held across the city on Sunday. The Indian Air Force organised a marathon from Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium, joined by actors like Huma Qureshi and Shefali Shah. Social media users criticised the events, calling them risky and irresponsible amid severe pollution. Experts warned that running in such conditions could cause breathing problems and fever. Despite criticism, many still participated. Delhi recorded ‘severe’ air quality at several monitoring stations, with Wazirpur reporting the highest AQI of 439. Pollution levels may remain high till November 4. (PC: ANI)
