Indian Capital

The Indian capital of New Delhi geared up to host the upcoming Group of 20 (G20) summit at the weekend with tight security arrangements.

Authorities riding bulldozers razed a number of Muslim-owned shops in New Delhi before India’s Supreme Court halted the demolitions Wednesday.

The air quality in the Indian capital remained in the 'very poor' category.

The city’s air quality index fell into the “very poor” category on Sunday, according to SAFAR, India’s main environmental monitoring agency, and in many areas levels of the deadly particulate matter reached around six times the global safety threshold.
