The common belief is that rural areas are free from air pollution. On the contrary air quality in the rural areas all over the world and particularly in the developing countries may be more polluted than some of the urban areas. Rural areas suffer from out door air pollution as well as indoor air pollution.
Major sources of out door air are indiscriminate use of insecticides/pesticides sprays and burning of wheat and paddy straw.
Yes, air pollution from rural area affects the urban areas.Smoke from stubble burning in Punjab and Haryana accounted for 44 per cent of pollution in Delhi.Crop residue burning has contributed a lot in increasing the pollution.
