BS, farmers across the plains of "The Punjab", as they call it, are to blame.

I don't know man.

I keep a stubble only on the weekends.

Rest of the week I shave regular.

These basturds don’t bury the stubble and turn it into mulch but burn it in open pit fires and now nobody can breathe nor see!

But they can !

Just that they're getting the eye and lung bimarias.

Pathetic that they haven't figured a way to deal with it apart from burning the heaps yet.

Junta/Awaam are a pretty xutoa bunch here.

Its the oldest form of turning (rejuvenation) the soil, known to mankind. Across the earth.

The African natives in South Africa do it to the rare flora of the Table Mountain once ever 12 years.

For millennia.

Bhai the air quality index is at 700!

This is so far beyond catastrophic levels it’s not funny.

It’s like millions will die in the next few months from respiratory illnesses. People with asthma will go first!

Had this been true, people in Amritsar would have died before that because of same pollution.
