Congress leader Rahul Gandhi has called out the central government over the country's worsening air quality, labeling it a 'health emergency.' In a strongly worded social media post, Gandhi shared the concerns of several mothers, who fear for their children's health due to toxic air. He accused Prime Minister Narendra Modi of remaining silent despite the crisis. The situation is dire, with air pollution levels remaining hazardous in several cities and families feeling exhausted, scared, and angry. Gandhi urged the government to convene an immediate and detailed debate in Parliament on air pollution and demanded a strict, enforceable national action plan to address the crisis. "Every mother I meet shares the same fear - their child is growing up breathing toxic air," Gandhi wrote. "India needs a clear plan, accountability, and urgency to tackle this crisis. Clean air is a basic right of every child, not an excuse or distraction.
