Bengaluru air quality: City among 10 most polluted in India on Monday morning

However, BTM Layout continued to record a reading of 101 and it was registered as the most polluted area in the city.

An AQI value above 100 is considered moderately severe and something that might cause difficulties in people with breathing problems, according to the CPCB.

CPCB and the Karnataka State Pollution Control Board located 10 monitoring stations to track pollution levels across the city. BTM Layout, Bapuji Nagar, Hombegowda Nagar, Jayanagar 5th block, City Railway station, Saneguruvanahalli, Hebbal, Silk Board, Peenya and BWSSB Kadubeesanahalli are where the pollution is monitored in Bengaluru.
