I remember when Delhi winters were the best time of the year. Chilly mornings starting with a piping hot cuppa to evenings with Old Monk were what we looked forward to.
But now it’s all about waking up feeling heavy in the chest with a perpetual cough that’s going nowhere anytime soon. Difficulty in breathing, chronic headaches and constantly feeling choked have become a part of our daily life.
