Doctors advise N95 masks, indoor exercise, air purifiers amid high pollution in Delhi

What's behind this

Doctors have advised people to temporarily leave Delhi because current measures are inadequate, noting that those with prolonged outdoor exposure and daily commutes are especially vulnerable to poor air quality.
