Winter is coming. It is the best time of the year when almost every part of India engages in festivities. Unfortunately, it is also that time of the year when half the country struggles to breathe fresh air. Due to the inevitable burning of croplands and the adverse impact of the mixing of vehicular emissions with fog, the air becomes severely to extremely unhealthy. While it is difficult — almost impossible — to mitigate the polluted air around you outdoors, you have the option to breathe clean air indoors. For that, you need to keep your doors and windows shut as long as possible, and you need an air purifier. Air purifiers have become quite mainstream today, as a result of which you can find one at affordable prices. If you are looking for an air purifier for under Rs 20,000, Amazon is running some great deals right now.
