worldwide. India has the highest death rate due to air pollution. India
also has more deaths from asthma than any other nation according to

The oxides of nitrogen are toxic gases which enter the human
body during breathing. High concentration of NO2 may increase
susceptibility to respiratory pathogens and also increases risk of acute
respiratory diseases like bronchitis, chronic fibrosis, emphysema and
bronchopneumonia. N02 exposure can cause decrement in lung
functions.
It has been established that continuous exposure with as little as
0.1 ppm NO2 in air over a period of one to three years increases
incidence of bronchitis, sedema, emphysema, oedema and adversely
