Thick smog continues to cover large parts of India two days after Diwali, with NASA satellite images showing a widespread grey haze across the country. The images captured on November 10 show the worst concentration over Delhi, Uttar Pradesh and northern states, including Uttarakhand, Himachal Pradesh and Jammu and Kashmir. Parts of central and southern India are also affected, while Rajasthan, Gujarat and northeastern states appear relatively clearer. Delhi's air quality improved to the 'poor' category, with an AQI of 299 on Tuesday, compared with 376 on Monday. Higher wind speeds helped disperse some pollutants. (PC: NDTV)
