Plague of insects on Delhi

Since over 5 days Delhi NCR is plagued with those tiny insects.. in such large numbers.. guess this is the first time so many insects are flying around, and everyone I know is complaining about them...

I got a real feel of them while I was on riding my bike at about 23:30 hrs yesterday and everytime I passed under a street light, there was a shower of those insects, and yucks!!! But, it just made me recall the great plague of locusts (of the ten plagues) that was sent on Egypt when he was persecuting God's chosen ones.. Those locusts didn't just fly around.. they just consumed everything on their way... I think I have some realistic estimate of what that would've been like!
