Unexpected rains may have caught many off guard and caused difficulties, but they also revealed a startling truth. The city's air in april was noticeably better than it was even during the Covid-caused lockdown in april 2021 thanks to the rains.

The Central pollution Control Board's findings show that, with only five days of moderate pollution last month, the air quality index constantly remained within acceptable ranges. This is a long cry from the 14 days in april 2021 and the 16 days in april 2022 when the air quality index (AQI) exceeded the moderate limit.

The lockdown in april 2021 caused a dramatic decrease in the amount of traffic on the city's highways. The air quality did slightly improve as a result of this. It was insufficient, though, to stop the AQI from going over the moderate limit 14 times during the month.

The rains, on the other hand, were an odd ally that helped april 2023 be better than that year. A top environmental expert claims that this april had more wet days than any april in recent memory. "The rains significantly improved the air quality by removing the majority of typical air pollutants and pollen. "During the rainy days, vehicle movement also slowed down, further reducing pollution," he stated.

The city as a whole saw the effects of this increase in air quality, with most regions recording air pollution levels well within the satisfactory category or below 100, including Nacharam, Malakpet, Khairatabad, Kompally, and Sanathnagar. Even the often hazy regions like Uppal, Paradise, and Abids had clean air to breathe.

On april 26, 2023, the AQI in hyderabad registered at a pitiful 55, which was the day with the least pollution. As a point of reference, an AQI between 0 and 50 is regarded as "good," and between 51 and 100 as "satisfactory." As the numbers rise, the scale advances to "moderate," "poor," "very poor," and "severe."
