How are people living like that daily? How do they all swim in that crazy polluted river? How are billions of them over there not getting crazy amounts of cancer?
Millions, not billions. India’s total population is around 1.4 billion, according to the older census, and by now, it’s somewhere around 1.7 billion.
Delhi and neighboring areas have garbage infrastructure, too much population density, high levels of corruption and lawlessness. Punjab is directly to blame for Delhi’s pollution - stubble burning is the reason for high levels of pollution. If you go back in history, mono-culture ruined Punjab.
