LAHORE (The Thursday Times) — Peer ko IQAir ke live air quality tracker ke mutabiq Lahore dunya ke bare shehron mein doosra sab se zyada aalooda shehr raha, jabke sardiyon ke smog ke peak mausam se pehle Punjab ke bohat se hisson par aalooda hawa chhayi rahi.
IQAir ne Peer ko aik waqt par Lahore mein Air Quality Index (AQI) 199 record kiya, jo US AQI scale par "sehat ke liye bohat nuqsandeh" ki 200 ki hadd ke qareeb hai. Din bhar readings mein utaar charhao raha, aur bareek zarrat (PM2.5) aloodgi phailane wala bunyadi unsur thay.
Dar-ul-hukumat se bahar haal zyada kharab
Aloodgi sirf soobai dar-ul-hukumat tak mehdood nahin thi. Punjab Environmental Protection Agency ki 26 October ki rozana update mein sooba bhar ka ausat AQI 144 raha, jo muatadil darje mein aata hai. Dera Ghazi Khan mein sab se zyada 213 aur Talagang mein sab se kam 96 record kiya gaya, jabke Lahore 178 par tha.
Pakpattan, Multan aur Sargodha jaise janoobi aur wasti azle bhi din bhar sab se zyada mutasir ilaqon mein shamil rahe, jahan 200 ke aas paas ya us se oopar readings record hui.
Barish ke koi aasaar nahin
Pakistan Meteorological Department ne Mangal ko Punjab ke zyadatar hisson mein khushk mausam ki peshgoi ki, jabke pahari ilaqon mein subah aur raat thandi rahengi. Lahore ka zyada se zyada darja hararat Mangal aur Budh ko 29°C aur 31°C ke darmiyan rehne ka imkan hai, aur shehr mein barish ki peshgoi nahin hai.
Barish ke baghair fori rahat ki koi ummeed nahin, agarchi aloodgi ki satah ab bhi hawa, darja hararat aur akhraj par munhasir hogi.
Sehat ke mahireen bachchon, bazurgon aur dil ya saans ke amraz mein mubtala har shakhs ko mashwara dete hain ke jab hawa kharab ho toh bahar ki sargarmiyan kam kar dein, aur jahan tak mumkin ho aalooda bahari hawa ko apne gharon se bahar rakhein.
