Most polluted cities in Rajasthan, India, August 2026

34 cities in Rajasthan, India ranked by their average PM2.5 over the 31 days. Worst: Pāli at 58.9 µg/m³, #9 of 2,866 cities in the world. Cleanest: Bārān at 11.5. A city needs measurements on 70% of the days to be ranked.

About 1.53M people in these 4 cities breathed unhealthy air on an average day of August 2026.

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.
