Man's Message To Friend About Seeing 'UFO' In Smog-Filled Delhi Goes Viral
The picture taken in a hazy weather due to pollution in the city looked similar to a UFO and it also caught the attention of the netizens.
People in the national capital Delhi have been battling air pollution for a while now. The air quality index (AQI) has remained in the severe category, especially after Diwali celebrations due to burning of crackers. Stubble burning in neighbouring states like Punjab and Haryana have further added to the woes.
Visibility due to smog is also becoming a challenge. This was evident after a man shared a picture of a flying saucer with his friend which later turned out to be a water tower. The picture taken in a hazy weather due to pollution in the city looked similar to a UFO and it also caught the attention of the netizens.
The friend to whom the picture was sent, shared it on the microblogging site Twitter along with the text that was sent to him.
The smog created an optical illusion and the picture indeed looked similar to a UFO hovering in the sky. The image was shared with the caption "Text from a friend in Delhi."
