Smog selfies are now a rage in Delhi
- Delhi residents take smog selfies
- The smog levels in the city have been beyond alarming
- An emergency meeting was held by the Delhi CM to discuss the air pollution severity
- Schools have been closed for close to a week
As Delhi reels from the air pollution of toxic proportions, the Delhi CM Arvind Kejriwal called for an emergency meeting on Sunday to discuss the severity of this pollution. PTI reports that “municipal schools in north and east Delhi will remain closed till Wednesday, while those in south Delhi will remain shut for the entire week due to the alarming pollution levels in the national capital.”
However, Delhi residents had something else in mind, and decided to record the alarming smog situation that has enveloped the city, with you guessed it - selfies, thus giving one the term, “smog selfies”.
These were seen on social media platforms like Twitter and Instagram. Have a look.
