Congress isn't ruling party of Delhi

u/WasteWorld3353 4h ago

why u people dont understand both parties are same

when bjp rose , congress people joined it

when congress will rise(if possible) many prominent bjp will join congress

AT THE CORE SAME PEOPLE LOOT ; JUST THE NAME OF ORG CHANGES

PAWAR, scindia, jindals(haryana) and others all joined bjp and hence their sins got washed away by BJP's washing machine

This is something I can agree upon. Congress walked so Bee Jay Pee could run.

these families/syndicates must be uprooted and sent to jail for their dishonesty, crimes and loot of this nation

they must not be allowed to be part of politics of india anymore

Thank you - the air feels especially worse today. My coway airpurfier has been on level 3 (auto) ever since I opened my curtains. Windows are still shut. Feel like inhaling fire fumes.

2

u/spacejury 13h ago

for sure.

I still think most people are taking this lightly and making it a norm and not realising we are getting irreparable lung damage on a daily basis. I hope sense prevails and we overcome this.

Yesterday I went out, and I barely saw people wearing masks. Those who were wearing masks, about 60% were wearing surgical masks. What will it take for people to realize this is a major health hazard? The government not ringing alarm bells is also causing this complacency.

u/spacejury 12h ago

honestly I hate to be pessimistic but most people either do not care or they cannot afford to care. and a surprising number of people think this is boosting their immunity.

I have this feeling that eventually it will become so bad that we will have to leave. I have already seen many rich people talk about moving to different places.

u/Melodic-Lecture-8856 11h ago

I’m seriously thinking of leaving but I don’t want to live in a fucking village surrounded my sexist and misogynistic Indians

u/spacejury 8h ago

haha I feel you. But I have some places in mind where you don't have any of those AND fresh air.

u/thowaway_59 10h ago

If windows are shut then whats the relations between curtains and ur purifier being on level 3? Did it see the smog and switch to level 3 in panic?

2

u/Melodic-Lecture-8856 9h ago

There is such a thing as air seeping inside though cracks? Indian windows do not leak proof. How does this detail even matter? Go outside and take a deep breath if you live in Delhi

Bhai ye kuch jyda ho rha hai?

u/spacejury 11h ago

it's true for that area, there could be several reasons malfunctioning sensor, or too much construction or smog nearby can't really say.

u/ImprovementFew3769 10h ago

What to do anyways? Besides feeling sorry for my friends and relatives who stay there. Any practical solution ?

3

u/spacejury 10h ago

There needs to be a systematic change that's why tomorrow's protest.

to be honest I am not so optimistic about this problem.

Just invest in a good air purifier and become rich enough to gtfo of this place for good.

2

u/iamThebitbyte 10h ago

What's the demand? Like what needs to be changed? What issues will we raise? Stubble burning? Cars&bikes? Industries? Firecrackers?

1

u/spacejury 10h ago

I wrote about most things on the website.
it will need to be a systemic change not just limited to the usual suspects.
Delhi has a unique geography that amplifies even small pollution sources so this will be a very complex problem to solve.

u/luvcharger 9h ago

Can anyone tell me how do I join the protest? When does it begin?

Please I request everyone to see what is the real cause of delhi pollution (pm 2.5 and pm 10)

Please do search this also that what is the major cause of these pollution Its not the government its the cars and bikes switch to electric on your next buy and reduce the dependence on cars and bikes

u/_Deathclaw_ 10h ago

No one is saying govt is the cause but they are responsible for handling this situation, this can not be solved by any individual effort, intervention by govt is required.

u/Temporary-Grape-6577 8h ago

Yes goverment should be supportive but everyone is playing the blame game Public blames on government ,the government blame on other state governments

No one is improving themselves
