Roy Chowdhury said ( about Navi Mumbai ) : “It is not clear how the ratio between PM10 and PM2.5 is changing over time. However, the analysis indicates that Mumbai will require stringent time bound action on vehicles and public transport, construction activities, industrial units, waste management and solid fuel use for cooking. This data is on ambient concentration which is greatly influenced by the sea breeze. But local exposures are expected to be high and that requires mapping of hotspot pollution and action,”

Gufran Beig said ( about Navi Mumbai ) : “This was expected as when conditions become favourable for monsoon withdrawal, there is a sharp drop in wind speed and rise in temperatures, especially for a coastal city like Mumbai. This allows pollutant particles to get suspended close to the surface and form a layer of haze,”
