Thirty-two flights were diverted on Sunday morning (November 3rd) as pollution levels in the Indian capital crossed the 600 mark, according to local reports.

Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal called the situation "unbearable" and said the people of Delhi were suffering through "no fault of theirs."

Pollution levels in Delhi's surrounding areas were high too, forcing the authorities in Noida, in Uttar Pradesh, to shut schools until Tuesday.
