Breathe Better: Best Air Purifiers For Delhi Pollution Under Rs 10,000

New Delhi: Air purifiers are no longer a luxury that one would buy to enjoy clean air that's free from toxins and other particles. Pollution in Delhi-NCR reaches hazardous levels especially after Diwali and this year has been no exception, thanks to the burning of crackers, stubble burning in the neighbouring states, ongoing construction work and so on.

The measures suggested include ensuring that no petrol vehicles older than 15 years or diesel vehicles older than 10 years ply on NCR roads, increasing fleet of CNG buses, deployment of anti-smog guns, more water sprinklers and application of dust suppressants in all vulnerable hotspots, ban on entry of trucks into Delhi and a ban on diesel gen-sets except for emergency services. 

However, the quality of air has hit alarming levels there seems to be a little respite. Even as we have little to no control over the air we breathe in, we sure can invest in a decent air purifier for our homes and offices. We have compiled a guide that will walk you through the top air purifiers available under Rs 10,000 right now.
