The major recent initiatives that might have helped in the reduction include the launch of the National Air Quality Index (AQI) for public awareness, the formation of Environment pollution (prevention and control) authority, implementation of a Graded Response Action Plan (GRAP) and Comprehensive Action Plan LPG is lower than that of solid fuel (Deepthi et al., 2019) , the implementation of PMUY across India would have reduced PM 2.5 levels mainly at the regional level (Chowdhury et al., 2019) . This study reports a detailed analysis of the variabilities and trends in the PM 2.5 concentration measured at the US embassy and consulates in the five megacities (Chennai, Kolkata, Analysis of MERRA-2 meteorological parameters suggests no significant change in the annual mean wind speed, temperature, PBLH, and precipitation in the past six years.	./cache/cord-284583-urh0xk7r.txt	./txt/cord-284583-urh0xk7r.txt
