Firefighters said that a fire in a mountain of garbage often lasts for several days. At present efforts are being made to control the fire. If a fire is extinguished at one place, it flares up at another place. At the same time, local people living around the landfill site say that fires often occur here in summer. According to the police, information was received at around 5.22 pm on Sunday that a fire had broken out in the Ghazipur landfill site.
A fire department official said that due to the pressure of the garbage, methane gas is formed there, due to which the fire breaks out again and again. It is not known whether the fire started due to heat itself or due to some human error.
