Most polluted cities in Haryana, India
19 measured cities, this year; 19 above the WHO annual guideline. Worst: Gurugram at 102.9 µg/m³, #1 in the world.
464 monitors in India haven't reported for more than two days. Cities that rely on them are missing from the 24-hour board and may drop from the longer ones; that isn't clean air, and they return when the data does.
About 2.09M people in these 2 cities breathed unhealthy air on an average day so far this year.
Ranked by people: each city's population times its share of unhealthy days, those with a daily mean over 35.4 µg/m³ (US AQI 101+). That is how many people living there breathed unhealthy air on an average day. Only cities measured at 2 or more places at least 3 km apart are ranked: one monitor shouldn't speak for a whole city. Population is the city itself, not its wider metro area.
Cities coloured by their PM2.5 over the last 24 hours. Fires, smoke and ash: Oct 5, the newest UTC day mapped.

Estimated: cities without a monitor
Haryana cities we can't measure, with model estimates for the last 7 days. Listed by population, not ranked: estimates aren't precise enough to rank. Model estimates from the Copernicus Atmosphere Monitoring Service (CAMS), adjusted to measured cities nearby where there are any. Adjusted, a single day lands within ×1.5 of what a monitor would read about two times in three; unadjusted, it can be off by half or double. Treat them as a guide, not a measurement.
