Well, uh, recently, uh, few months ago, I have gone, uh, not Indian trip with my 10 of friends. To Delhi. And I have already heard that Delhi is the most polluted place, uh, in the case of air pollution and noise, and environment pollution, but I didn’t, um, realize that it would be this severe. And after I reached there, I really felt and really felt the, uh, pollution and the struggling of the people, uh, who lived there because I’m a person who is very sensitive to the a dust, uh, when it comes to air pollution, I am very sensitive. And I was, um, struggling to breathe, and also my face have turned red. My friends had really, uh, felt like, um, she they all are scared a lot. Because, uh, uh, seeing me in that situation. And I was literally, uh, because of me, they have literally dropped the plan of the trip but I think they have to, uh, do something. Government have to take initiative to do, reducing air pollution. The mostly, I think it’s because of the vehicle. Uh, I have seen a lot of vehicle there And when I was when we go there, there was also taking place some kind of festivals and the crackers uh, the holy colors, everything was like a blur. And, like, every the air is, like, pollute, uh, polluted And we can’t even breathe. I was, uh, I and my friends were rushing to our hotel room to get a fresh air. And it was a very bad, uh, experience that I had, uh, in our nat, uh, capital of our country. I felt very bad. I think government need to take initiative to do. We all know that our nature have a thing to, uh, to defy the surrounding. But, uh, in the city, there was not pre and other things. So I think it uh, it it it doesn’t have a capacity to, uh, purify the surrounding. And my experience was very bad, and I really felt that I won’t come back uh, and I if I if I’m coming back again, I would really, um, think of it once again.

A few months ago, I went on a trip to Delhi with ten of my friends. I had heard that Delhi is one of the most polluted cities in the world, but I didn't realize how severe it would be. As soon as I arrived, I could feel the pollution and see how it was affecting the people who lived there. I'm very sensitive to dust and air pollution, and I was struggling to breathe. My face even turned red. My friends were scared seeing me like that. They were so worried about me that they actually had to cut our trip short. I think the government needs to take action to reduce air pollution. I saw a lot of vehicles in Delhi, and there was a festival going on when we were there. The fireworks, the colored powders, everything was just a blur. The air was so polluted we couldn't even breathe. My friends and I rushed back to our hotel room to get some fresh air. It was a really bad experience, especially in our country's capital. I felt terrible. I think the government needs to take action. We all know that nature has a way of purifying the air, but in a city like Delhi, there aren't enough trees and green spaces. So, I think the city doesn't have the capacity to purify the air. It was a really bad experience, and I don't think I'll go back anytime soon. If I do go back, I'll definitely think twice about it.
