Well it looks and feels quite damn different on the groud as well. Went to Delhi briefly for a few hours on February and I cannot believe people live there. The air quality would warrant immediate evacuation of the area in any other city in Europe and maybe in America as well. In the two hours I waited for a taxi to get me out of there I already started to feel like I'm breathing smoke from a bonfire. Black snot came out my nose for a few days after as well.

I would not live in such air quality for any amount of wealth, it is way way beyond liveable there.
