Abstract: – Air is one of the most crucial anticipated assets for the endurance and sustenance of all species on the planet. Air quality sensor devices increase the attention and focus of particles that have an anthropogenic source and cause hazardous consequences during or after a human being's gulp of air. Particles such as PM2.5, PM10, CO, O3, NO2, NO, and others degrade air quality. As technology progresses, researchers and environmental agencies have developed novel methods for combating and managing air pollution.Covid-19 is an epidemic that will influence people' lives and activities in unprecedented ways through the year 2020. This lockout led in a great recovery in ecosystem quality, with much lower levels of air contaminants. Air pollution and the COVID-19 pandemic are connected in two distinct phases— before the outbreak and after its emergence. In the pre-pandemic phase, many regions were already facing severe air quality issues, largely due to dense populations, heavy traffic, and industrial emissions. Aerosol could help to promote the virus at a faster rate, and air pollutants could adversely impact people's lungs, allowing the virus to attack patients more brutally. Public authorities utilize a standardized scale to inform citizens about present and forecasted air pollution conditions. A higher reading on this scale reflects increased health hazards. Many countries have developed their own air monitoring systems, each aligned with their specific environmental safety benchmarks.In this study I have focused on the levels of air quality index pre-covid and post covid and tried to analyze what future outcomes could be possible with either of the situations. Data of 5 cities of India has been processed (Agra, Anand Vihar ,Delhi,Faridabad,Gurgaon),missing value treatments, data validation, and data cleaning/preparation and have been used to predict future outcomes by following a pattern of consecutive years. There is no doubt that this problem has to be addressed with utmost focus.
