Air is a basic need for living and when air is polluted, humans develop breathing problems and spend much on health problems; and air pollution results in untimely death.People cannot contribute to growth of the nation, when they die early
Burning of farm waste also contributes to air pollution. Farmers find labor costly and removing agricultural waste means spending on labor. To cut the costs of labor and transport of farm wastes, they burn it. This results in air pollution. The agricultural belt lies in Uttar Pradesh, Bihar, Odissa, and West Bengal. And the air cannot cannot rise to level of Himalayan range that it can go towards upper Asia. And the fumes cannot go towards the ocean as the wind does not blow that way. As the winter approaches like right now, the air is cold and heavy and hence it hangs above the ground making it difficult to breathe.
