Rapid growth in human population and extensive industrialization around the world has resulted in the degradation of environment in the last five decades. So, air quality monitoring is important to know the baseline status of various gaseous pollutants and suspended particulate matter (SPM) of any area. An air quality analysis for respirable suspended particulate matter (RSPM) and non respirable suspended particulate matter (NRSPM) of Yamuna Nagar, Haryana was carried out on three sites namely residential area, commercial area and the industrial area in the city. The two values have been added to find out the level of SPM. The value of RSPM and NRSPM were found to be higher than the limits set by National Ambient Air Quality Standards in all the three sites.

RSPM, NRSPM, Residential area, Commercial area, Industrial area.
