For First Time In Over 30 Years Himalayas Visible From Saharanpur As Air Quality Substantially Improves
Himalayan range visible from Saharanpur
For the first time in 30 years the inner Himalayan peaks of Bandarpunch and Gangotri became visible from the town of Saharanpur in Uttar Pradesh as air quality substantially improved with an AQI of less than 50, reports Times of India.
Photos of the Himalayan range from Saharanpur were captured by an Income Tax inspector and his wife from their residence. They were shared on twitter by Indian Forest Service officer Ramesh Pandey.
Pandey who was posted in Saharanpur for a long time expressed his joy over the sighting and recounted that he had never managed to view the peaks during his stint in the town.
A few days ago it was reported that peaks of the Dhauladhar mountain range became visible from Jalandhar after a long time. Similarly, a reduction in human activity has substantially improved the water quality levels of Ganga and Yamuna rivers.
Introducing ElectionsHQ + 50 Ground Reports Project
The 2024 elections might seem easy to guess, but there are some important questions that shouldn't be missed.
Do freebies still sway voters? Do people prioritise infrastructure when voting? How will Punjab vote?
The answers to these questions provide great insights into where we, as a country, are headed in the years to come.
Swarajya is starting a project with an aim to do 50 solid ground stories and a smart commentary service on WhatsApp, a one-of-a-kind. We'd love your support during this election season.
