Abstract:
The central India plateau is environmentally very important to understand the rich Indian biodiversity and diffuse chemical pollution. Madhya Pradesh literally means’ central province’ and is located in the geographic heart of India, between latitude 21.20N-26.870N and longitude 74002’-82049’E. Madhya Pradesh is the second largest state in the country by area. Air sampling is done as per the CPCB guideline for manual sampling and analysis. Eighty air samples were collected for seasonally i.e. (winter, summer and Monsoon). Sampling sites were selected to represent industrial area and residential area as per NAAQS-1994. All the air samples of NOx were detected below the standard limit (80µg/m3). SPM, NOx and SO2 did not exceed the standard limit in almost all the sampling stations of central India. Based on the result it may be concluded that the air quality had not been affected due to study area as of Now. To arrives a definite conclusion it is suggested to monitor SPM, along with NOx and SO2.
