The worst fog of the season engulfed Delhi-NCR on Wednesday, covering the area and reducing visibility to almost nonexistent. There is mayhem throughout the area as a result of the dense fog blanketing several forms of transportation, grounding over 110 planes and delaying 25 trains. But, memers have used their talent and created memes on Delhi fog!
Delhi To Witness Severe Fog

In the upcoming days, dense to extremely dense fog is predicted to linger across the Northwest and portions of Central India, according to the India Meteorological Department (IMD). The IMD predicts that in December, there will be thick fog in the early hours across Uttarakhand and Odisha.
Heavy fog is also expected over Assam, Meghalaya, Nagaland, Manipur, Mizoram, and Tripura from December 27 to December 31, as well as over Haryana, Chandigarh, Delhi, and Uttar Pradesh on December 30 and 31.
According to reports, on December 26, heavy fog caused visibility issues in several locations, delaying roughly thirty flights—including international ones—at the Delhi airport and causing issues for fourteen trains. On Tuesday, thick fog also covered Punjab and Haryana. Numerous cities in Punjab, including Amritsar and Ludhiana, reported experiencing intense fog.

It doesn’t appear to have affected social media users’ sense of humour, though. Many social media users shared posts with photos and videos of the thick fog, adding a comical touch to the chilly weather.

A user posted a video of himself riding a bike in a post on Delhi fog. The user eloquently stated that his life is like fog—the destination is visible, but the journey is still unknown.

One person expressed their feelings by subtly including a tagline from a deodorant commercial. A person commented ‘fog ka raj in Delhi’ on this post.
Someone else said that the scene perfectly captured the spirit of wintertime.

Chesta Gupta, an X user, utilised a meme that originated from an Indian government anti-smoking advertisement. Her post had two images: one showed a person strolling on the road in the thick fog, and the other showed people warming their hands by the fire.
There were some old memes which caught our attention; like this one which was centred around Diwali.
At the start of the winter season , #stubbleburning is the only main reason of sudden rise in Air Pollution in Delhi.
For this to stop one of the main solution is to provide sustainable solution to mainly Punjab & Haryana Farmers, so that they can restrict themselves from burning… pic.twitter.com/Yn9a2hnALz— मैं भारतवासी🇮🇳 (@SachienTayal) November 3, 2023
Another person posted a scene from the movie Jawan, where Shah Rukh Khan is seen brandishing a gun against a very blurry background. The post stated that he liked Delhi’s air pollution cameo in Jawan.
