Jonty Rhodes Compares Delhi’s Toxic Air to Goa’s Clean Breeze: “Hardto Digest”


South African cricket legend Jonty Rhodes has raised concerns over Delhi’s worsening air pollution, describing it as “hard to digest.” Taking to X (formerly Twitter), Rhodes shared that while passing through Delhi en route via Ranchi, he was grateful to live in a small fishing village in South Goa, contrasting its clean air with Delhi’s toxic smog. Using the hashtags #AQI and #whats2Bdone, Rhodes shared a photo of his children playing football on a Goan beach, adding that if they were in Delhi, they would likely be playing indoors. His post comes as Delhi faces its worst air quality levels this year.
