Have you ever wondered how air pollution affects your health? We generally understand that smoke and other hazardous substances in the air affect our respiratory system and we can get a cold, headache or fever. Or the eyes may be affected.
The matter is not limited here. Experts say that in a place, if the air pollution is very high and is maintained frequently, the health of a person can decline to such an extent that his age can also decrease.
Experts have told about the capital of India that the air pollution there is so high that if people do not take precautions and do not take remedial measures, their life expectancy may decrease by twelve years.
Even if we keep in mind the average life expectancy in India, the life expectancy of the residents of Delhi could decrease by eight and a half years.
Delhi is the most densely populated city in India and also the most polluted city in the world. The population of the city is constantly increasing as people from Uttar Pradesh, Haryana and Punjab are also coming and settling here from Gujarat and Madhya Pradesh. These people are forced to live in very poor environment.
The Delhi administration is unable to increase the facilities in proportion to the growing population and the pressure on the city’s infrastructure is also increasing.
