Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal on Wednesday said he was glad to see that pollution levels had come down, but efforts have to be made to ensure there is no increase.
Delhi breathed easier on Wednesday as pollution levels dropped further due to moderate wind speed though weather experts feared a cloud cover at night and light drizzle could lead to deterioration of air quality.
