Pollution has significantly affected the Qutub Minar, causing deterioration of its intricate sandstone carvings and structural integrity. Acid rain and particulate matter have led to surface erosion and discoloration, diminishing the monument's aesthetic appeal. Furthermore, pollutants have accelerated the growth of fungi and lichen on the stone, further compromising its condition. Conservation efforts are ongoing to mitigate these effects and preserve the monument for future generations.
Qutab Minar is affected by pollution because there are large industrial areas in the city that let off smoke and pollutants into the air. This is similar to that of many other cities throughout the world.
