A video has recently gone viral on the internet, showing tall air purifiers being installed at busy junctions in Jaipur. This has now sparked a meme fest on social media platforms. Jaipur appeared to take an unconventional step by installing outdoor air purifiers at major traffic points in the city.

Outdoor air purifiers in Jaipur spark meme fest on social media.

The viral clips, which surfaced a day ago, claimed that officials had installed India’s first outdoor purifiers at busy spots such as Rambagh Circle and Ajmeri Gate. This unusual move was reportedly taken to tackle rising pollution levels, as Jaipur’s Air Quality Index (AQI) ranged from 177 to 190 this winter. While the video started trending on social media, the authenticity of the installation remained unclear. Many even highlighted online that such purifiers had a limited impact outdoors unless larger pollution sources, such as traffic emissions, waste burning, and dust control, are addressed.

Netizens react to the viral video.

More netizens questioned the practicality of the idea, while many others responded with jokes about placing “replacing trees with purifiers” or “installing a RO in the ocean to manage water pollution…” Many highlighted that more effective measures could include simply planting more trees. Other comments included, “We need air purifiers to keep air purifiers clean.” One more said, “This is a useless idea, I don’t think it will make any difference, it would be better to plant as many trees as possible, which will work as natural purifiers.”
