Kathmandu. Air pollution in Nepal has become high again. Air pollution has become high with increasing drought, drought and fire in various parts of the country including Kathmandu. On Tuesday morning alone, the air quality in Kathmandu was unhealthily recorded, making it difficult to breathe. Due to lack of proper rainfall for a long time, the atmosphere here is becoming polluted due to the addition of new particles along with the dust particles that have settled in the atmosphere. According to the Department of Environment, it was seen that the dust particles that fell with the water during the light rain last week were re-evaporated and made the lower atmosphere hazy.
According to Environment Inspector Prakash KC, air pollution has reached the danger level. He said, "If the urban pollution increases with the fire in the coming days, it cannot be said that the level of danger cannot be crossed." As he said, the atmosphere of Kathmandu has been foggy and gloomy for a few days. Meteorologist Sanjeev Adhikari said that the polluted air in the lower atmosphere could not go up because the sky did not fully open due to the change.
