AIR QUALITY ANALYSIS AND STATISTICS FOR VARANASI
How badly polluted is the air in Varanasi?
Varanasi is a city in India with significant cultural and religious importance, being a sacred site across various faiths such as Buddhism, Hinduism and Jainism. It was also renowned in years past for its textile production, as well as perfumes and sculptures. Nowadays it still sees fervent activity, with a large population of some 1.69 million inhabitants living within the city’s limits. As well as this, there is a large amount of tourism seen in the city, not just hosting foreign holiday makers but also pilgrims visiting from both India and abroad, with a significant amount of local people coming here to visit the various holy sites along the river Ganges.
With a thriving tourist industry (pre covid-19 era) as well as a significant amount of manufacturing plants centered around the production of metals, textiles, printing and electronic items, there would thus be a significant amount of air pollution generated by these anthropogenic and industrial activities, as well as the mass movement of people.
