Kochi Residents Flag Night-Time Air Quality Worsening as Monitoring Stations Fail
Residents in Kochi are reporting a visible deterioration in air quality, particularly after dark, as concerns mount over potential health risks from pollution. The issue has escalated into a governance problem after an MLA sought the Chief Ministerโs intervention, while the state pollution control board remains unable to provide real-time AQI readings because key monitoring stations in Vyttila and Kaloor are non-functional.
