This article discusses the issue of air pollution and dust-induced health problems. A study conducted by researchers from IIT Delhi and IIT Kanpur identified five states in India that contribute to a significant portion of the country's dust emissions. These states, namely Rajasthan, Uttar Pradesh, Maharashtra, Karnataka, and Gujarat, have high levels of dust particles in the air due to factors such as construction sites, high traffic volume, and road dust. The study highlights the need for effective mitigation measures.
