24 hours average concentrations of parameters viz. Nitrogen dioxide (NO 2) , Sulphur dioxide (SO 2 ) are below the permissible limits of National Environmental Quality Standards (NEQS), whereas concentration of Particulate Matter of size less than 2.5 microns (PM 2.5 ) is slightly higher than safe limit of NEQS. The ambient air quality of Islamabad is not healthier today.
