Latest Answer: Yes, the pollution level in Kochi is really bad. I recently read a report which said that Kochi is the 24th worst polluted city in the country. These industries are the main problem, they don't adhere to the rules that the government has laid down, and the government don't take any action against them. The Respirable Suspended Particulate Matter (RSPM) is more than the limit it should be, and in areas like MG Road, Kalamassery, and Ernakulam South it is the worst. So many people in the city are falling sick because of the pollution. Many people get astha or some respiratory problem. This is very sad what is happening to our beautiful city.
