Sulfur dioxide, is an air pollutant that causes:
. . . . . . acid rain,
. . . . . . haze, and
. . . . . . many health-related problems.
It is produced predominantly,
. . . when coal is burned to generate electricity.
Although China, and India remain the world’s largest consumers of coal,
. . . a new University of Maryland-led study found that,
. . . China’s sulfur dioxide emissions fell by
. . . 75% since 2007, while
. . . India’s emissions increased by
. . . 50%.
The results suggest that,
. . . India is becoming, if it is not already,
. . . the world’s top sulfur dioxide emitter.

Not the same, but definitely related are recent articles about New Delhi air quality, referring to "gas chamber" like air.
