During lockdown, major anthropogenic activities were put on hold that resulted in decrease in pollution level. The improvement in air quality, water quality and noise levels were due to restriction on various pollution sources like vehicles, factories, mining etc. There were certain adverse effects on environment amid Covid-19 due to more solid waste production and medical waste.
