Description: Recent reports have confirmed that Loni had the worst air quality in the world for the entire year 2025—not just in India, but globally. According to the 2025 World Air Quality Report (released in 2026), Loni recorded an annual average PM2.5 level of about 112.5 µg/m³, which is extremely high. This is over 22 times higher than the safe limit recommended by the World Health Organization (WHO). Recent reports have highlighted that Loni, a town in Ghaziabad near Delhi, had the worst air quality in the world for the full year of 2025. This ranking was based on average PM2.5 pollution levels measured across the entire year, not just during peak winter months. The data showed that Loni’s yearly average pollution level was extremely high and far above safe limits set by health organizations. In simple terms, the air remained unhealthy almost all the time, rather than only during certain seasons. Experts say this happened because of a mix of factors. These include heavy traffic, nearby industries, construction dust, and frequent burning of waste. Its location near Delhi also means it is affected by pollution from the larger NCR region, especially during winter when polluted air gets trapped. Because the pollution stayed consistently high throughout the year, Loni ended up ranking worse than many bigger and more well-known polluted cities. This has raised concerns about air quality not just in major cities, but also in surrounding urban areas. Subscribe for more educational content and unlock knowledge every day with FactTechz!
