Lahore has officially been declared the world’s most polluted city, according to the latest air quality index (AQI) data. The city is grappling with dangerously high levels of air pollution, attributed to industrial emissions, vehicle exhaust, and construction dust.
Health officials are warning residents about the serious health risks posed by the toxic air, including respiratory and cardiovascular diseases. Authorities are calling for urgent action, including stricter emissions regulations and investment in cleaner energy sources.
Local environmental activists are pressing for immediate measures to improve air quality and protect public health. A press conference is expected later this week to discuss potential solutions to this escalating crisis.
