Dhaka's air quality still moderate---

Dhaka's air quality continued to be in the 'moderate' zone on Saturday morning, reports UNB.

With an air quality index (AQI) score of 83 at 9:03 am, Dhaka ranked 11th on the list of cities worldwide with the worst air quality.

Indonesia's Jakarta, Pakistan's Lahore and Indonesia's Medan occupied the first three spots on the list, with AQI scores of 162, 158 and 155, respectively.

An AQI between 50 and 100 is considered 'moderate' with acceptable air quality. However, there may be a health concern for a very small number of people who are unusually sensitive to air pollution.
