Lockdown and intermittent rains have significantly improved the AQI. These pictures were taken by Dushyant, an Income Tax inspector, from his house at Vasant Vihar colony on Monday evening. #lockdowneffect #nature pic.twitter.com/1vFfJqr05J
Part of his caption read, ¡®Lockdown and intermittent rains have significantly improved the AQI¡¯. He credited the images to an Income Tax inspector Dushyant, who apparently clicked them from his house at Vasant Vihar colony.
About a month ago, it was reported that Dhauladhar range, which is part of a Himalayan chain of mountains in Himachal Pradesh, had become visible to the people of Jalandhar in Punjab.
