Delhi Records Worst Diwali Air Quality in Five Years; Nvidia CEO Admits Affair Amid ProbePreviousNext

Delhi experienced its most polluted Diwali in five years, with the Air Quality Index (AQI) reaching 'very poor' levels above 370 on November 8 and crossing 400 in some areas on November 9 amid heavy smog and firecracker emissions. Several monitoring stations went offline during peak pollution, raising concerns about data accuracy. Separately, Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang admitted to an affair with a woman suspected by US intelligence to be a Chinese spy, prompting an internal investigation. Other global and national news included US-Iran diplomatic developments and an Egypt train collision.
