You don't really understand the ignorance of Indians and the way the Indian government rules us.
Pollution is not really seen as a bad thing but is seen as an inconvenience at best if not something to be proud of. Last month we had the festival called Diwali which involves using firecrackers and fireworks. Hundreds of millions of people lit fireworks at that time causing immeasurable air pollution just in the name of religion and culture. The air quality has been shit since then and people still use fireworks and firecrackers because "culture".
China and America don't see pollution in that way. For China it was a huge problem brought by unregulated industrial output and not something they see as a part of their identity.
There is also the lack of good education in India unlike China. People don't really understand the harmful effects of air pollution.
I can go on more but you should get the gist of it.
In my experience, the crackers themselves have gotten worse. There's more colour and sound now, and I don't remember them producing so much smoke back in the day. I used to be an avid arsonist as a child despite my asthma being worse then. Now I just can't stand being outdoors.
When it comes to Dehli, from what I've read, the problem is that the crackers tips it over. Post monsoons fog starts building up and it traps all the smoke creating deadly smog. It's just bad timing.

I gotta ask, are you Indian?
I am Indian and he is right on the nose.
I dont really see Diwali being that large of a contributor though, things were never this bad a decade ago, when crackers were double in numbers

Yeah?
Just to let you know you're being reported quite a bit for being racist against your countrymen
