During the first half, 64 trains were delayed, 14 were rescheduled and two others cancelled due to smog/fog conditions in Delhi.
The Indian Meteorological Department had predicted easier breathing on Saturday as the air quality in Delhi was expected to set to improve.
An air quality index (AQI) is a number used by government agencies to communicate to the public how polluted the air currently is or how polluted it is forecast to become. As the AQI increases, an increasingly large percentage of the population is likely to experience increasingly severe adverse health effects.
AQI 201-300 means air is 'Heavily Polluted' and above 300 means 'Severely Polluted'.
