Rain takes away all the Pollutants from the air and strong winds results in dispersal of pollutants. Both these factors led to the decline in the air quality. Apart from Patna, other cities which recorded the high AQI are, Saharsa, Munger, Chhapra, Katihar, Bhagalpur and Hajipur. However Chairman of the State Pollution Control Board submitted plan to the Central Pollution Control Board to tackle the situation.
