Air pollution in the Pakistani city of Lahore has broken all its records. Lahore, the cultural heart of Pakistan, is currently engulfed in a cloud of pollution. The poison in the air has increased so much that the Air Quality Index has crossed the 1100 mark, and medical experts and government officials are constantly warning that if people do not take precautions, the situation will get out of control. In the city, it seems as if it has become impossible to breathe. On one hand, there is a storm of coughing, and on the other hand, there is such a burning sensation in the eyes that it feels like the eyes are immersed in salt. Experts' warning and crowded hospitals According to reports, the city's hospitals and private clinics are full of patients. According to Salman Kazmi, Vice President of the Pakistan Medical Association, thousands of patients with respiratory and eye diseases have been reaching hospitals since last week. Doctors are constantly advising that the public should not go out without masks and follow the rules of hygiene. Punjab Chief Minister Marriyum Aurangzeb has also appealed to citizens to make the use of masks mandatory to avoid a complete lockdown. Coal And ban on rickshaws, closure of halls at 10 pm To control pollution, the government has banned the use of coal. Along with this, orders have been issued to keep the use of rickshaws and marriage halls closed till 10 pm. The government is also considering arranging artificial rain to clear the air a little so that the people of the city can breathe a little peace.
