Abstract
Pakistan is the most urbanized nation in South Asia (Ali, M et al.) and its second-biggest
city Lahore, developing at a rate of 4% annually, is viewed as the most polluted city in
Pakistan. Developed cities are potently afflicted by smog in Asia, and Lahore is no
reservation. Following the example of a year ago, Lahore has once again been immersed by
a shockingly substantial cover of smog, covering the whole city and negatively affecting
individuals' lives. The excessive ascent in cars, unchecked deforestation, speedy
urbanization, and unremitting development of industries (Sanchez-Triana, E et al.) have led
to this panic condition throughout the long term.
