The effects of urban air pollution on Azadirachta indica, A. Juss and Peltophorum inerme, Naves (= P. ferrugineum, Benth.) was investigated. Air quality monitoring was conducted at 10 selected areas during rainy, winter, and summer seasons and correlated with control area. The selected parameters were SPM, SO2, and NOx. Leaf samples from the selected polluted areas were collected during all the seasons and analyzed for total chlorophyll. The levels of pollutants in summer were comparatively less in most of the selected sites and there was increase in the chlorophyll content in both the plants. Total chlorophyll contents was more in A. Indica than P. inerme.
