and a massive fire that broke out at the Gazipur landfill site in Delhi on a Sunday evening, and the efforts have been underway to douse the fire. The Delhi Fire Service SO We talk about Naresh Kumar, who said the fire was caused by the gas produced in the landfill. A fire broke out at the Gazipur landfill site in East Delhi after 10 months. This is the first fire at the landfill this year, prompting authorities to rush with fire tender and excavators to the spot. Problem Problem. We are at the site of Gazipur landfill fire, where the heap has caught on fire yet again. This is not the first incident of its kind. This happens almost every year around summer time. Last year, the same incident happened and 2022. 1 such incident took at least 50 hours to be put out. There are fire fighting trucks already on their way up, trying to quash the fire. Yet none of their efforts have come out successful. The water cannons are being sprayed at the fire heap, but it's not working out clearly because every time the fire Department puts out one heap of fire, another heap catches on. Now. What we know so far is that the Fire Department has four trucks on their way up already and at least 50 more are expected here. This heap has been a concern in environmental and political terms in Delhi for the longest of time. The heap continues to build on top of it every year. Yet no political parties. No Delhi government has been able to cause this issue particularly. What we know for sure is that the methane gas being produced at this point is travelling to the residents house very close by affecting their health, affecting their visibility. This is causing pollution. You can barely tell the clouds, the monsoon clouds and the smoke clouds apart. Gunda for ND TV.
