An official of the weather agency told ANI, “Last night was the coldest in Delhi with the temperature plummeting to 8.3 degrees Celsius.

The area near IIT Delhi logged an AQI of 266, the T3 terminal of the airport reported an AQI of 290, Lodhi Road area reported an AQI of 249.

SAFAR, in its daily bulletin said, “For three days (12th, 13th, 14th), winds are likely to be low to moderate. Partially cloudy conditions and moderate mixing layer height causing moderate vertical mixing are likely to keep air quality within ‘poor’ during noon time or ‘lower end of very poor’ during the night and early morning hours for the next three days.
