New Delhi: Delhi's air quality improved slightly a day after it slipped into the 'poor' category due to a dust storm that originated from the Arabian peninsula, authorities said on Saturday. Last week, the air quality became 'good' for the first this year. But after a dust storm from Oman, the air quality index slipped to 'poor' category, an official with the Central Pollution Control Board said.
