Residents and visitors to Delhi are struggling to cope with severe levels of toxic air pollution that have prompted authorities to declare an “emergency situation” in the city. Others said they had not seen the sunrise in more than a week due to the haze that clogs the sky. Using the hashtags #DelhiSmog and #DelhiChokes, residents and tourists posted about their experiences of the pollution on Twitter. #DelhiSmog #DelhiChokes #pollution #Breathe pic.twitter.com/3V31bIeRrZPhotographs from the city show heavy smog at ground level.
