A choking haze of toxic smog in New Delhi will prevent Charlotte de Witte from taking action as the city takes aggressive action to stop further environmental damage.
The techno superstar's performance at Sunburn Arena, which was scheduled for this weekend, has been officially canceled as the city deals with toxic air conditions.
“Unfortunately Saturday's show in Delhi will not be able to take place. Due to a serious case of air pollution, the government is not allowing large events to take place,” de Witte wrote in instagram. “I am very sorry that I cannot be with you this weekend. I hope to be able to give you the show you deserve in the future, in safer conditions.”
Air pollution in India's capital is at its most dangerous this season, with deadly smog enveloping the city at a staggering “50 times the safe limit”, according to a report AP report. Life in India's capital is changing dramatically due to the harmful conditions, as the city has reportedly taken steps to close schools, ban “non-essential” trucks and diesel vehicles, halt construction projects and encourage residents to stay home.
At the time of writing, de Witte is still perform in bangalore and mumbai as planned on November 22 and 24, respectively.
